A 66-year-old man was jailed today for having sex with a horse and a donkey.

Joseph Squires was sentenced to a total of 22 months, a Leicester Crown Court official confirmed today.

He previously pleaded guilty to buggery of a donkey between February 2 and February 5 1999, and buggery with a horse between March 15 and 18 2004.

Squires, whose address was previously given as Overpark Avenue, Leicester, also admitted charges of damaging property - relating to the two animals on the same dates.

The court spokesman said Squires had already served 126 days on remand.
