  An American teenager has been accused of sexually assaulting pregnant horses at a stable owned by a Thai couple in Phuket, causing one of the animals to miscarry.

  
  
  

  Chatroj Lek-arwut and his wife Prapada filed a police complaint against the 19-year-old tourist, alleging he indulged in bestiality on different occasions.

  
  
  

  Prapada said the man regularly frequented the barn in Thalang district, where he touched and interacted with the horses. She noticed mucus had formed around the mares’ genitals when she took them for grazing.

  The couple said CCTV footage showed the teenager inserting his hand and arm into the vulvas of the horses on multiple instances during his visits.

  
  
  

  The indecent act reportedly led to a miscarriage in a nine-month pregnant horse, while a second one which was not expecting suffered irritation.

  
  
  

  The third mare was given antibiotics after it contracted an infection, potentially putting the life of her unborn foal at risk.

  
  
  

  Police on Monday met the suspect’s father at their home, who was “shocked” when shown the video from the security camera. He added he did not expect his son to do something like this.

  
  
  

  The teenager was instructed to appear before police for questioning on Saturday, the Bangkok Post reported.
