Boy admits desecrating church

A 13-year-old has admitted defecating in a pulpit and spreading the excrement over the stained glass windows at a church in Bicester.

The youth, from Bicester, was interviewed by police and admitted carrying out the attack at St Edburg's Church, in Church Street.

Jon Payne, a youth and schools involvement officer in Bicester, said: "The public were very upset when they read about this incident.

"By speaking to people in the town and the good policing of the officers in Bicester, it came to light who was responsible and subsequently the youth has admitted the offence.

"This is stupidity that got out of hand and something we're not getting every day."

The incident, which happened on Saturday, April 5, was immediately reported to the police.

Verger Colin Boyce, 68, had to clear up the mess, Because of the incident he is now keeping the church locked, only opening it when there was someone able to stand guard.

The Youth Justice Service in Banbury has yet to decide a course of action.

The first thing the police advise when vandalism occurs is to keep a log...

His parents are partly to blame. The child has not been taught good from bad, right from wrong, The paerents should be sentenced also. If he is doing this at 13, whats he going to be like at 16. He is a sick, sick kid.

I'd say that this little a$$hole should me made to go around all the parks and streets in Bicester picking up dog excrement. Without gloves. !!!! It would also have the benefit of stopping him biting his nails
