Somebody was making nighttime visits to farmer Terry Patterson's sheep barn in the 600 block of Big Mount Road in Paradise Township, police said.
Patterson told police he saw the evidence of several sexual assaults on his sheep, but never the intruder.
So he installed an alarm and intercom system.
It sounded about 3 a.m. Tuesday. Patterson went to the barn while his wife, Cindy, called 911.
Patterson told Northern York County Regional Police he peered in the barn window and saw a man assaulting a sheep, according to an arrest affidavit filed in District Justice Gerald Shoemaker's office.
Bruce Charles Englar, 53, of the 4600 block of Bentz Road in North Codorus Township, is charged with felony burglary for entering a building with the intention of committing a crime, namely, having sexual intercourse with a sheep.
Officer Patrick Gartrell of Northern Regional Police was patrolling nearby when 911 dispatched him to the Pattersons' home. He heard the farmer yelling in the barn, telling someone to stop. The officer ran toward a man dressed in black and ordered him to stop and put up his hands.
"I found baler's twine in Englar's back pocket, matching the twine that was hanging in the barn," Gartrell wrote in the affidavit.
Police allege the twine was to be used to secure the sheep for sexual intercourse.
Duty District Justice Nancy Edie also arraigned Englar by video camera on charges of criminal attempt to have sex with an animal, criminal trespass, possessing the instruments of crime and loitering and prowling at night.

Not from personal experience but I have heard that the worst thing about making it with sheep is:
Having to walk around to kiss them.
Reminds me of the joke about a rock star and a Scotsman...
A traveler was touring Scotland. He stopped in a pub for a drink in a seaside hamlet. Sitting at the bar was local fellow, rather worn looking bloke, a true Scotsman. The two men get to talking and after a few pints the Scotsman says to the traveler:
"Listen here man... you see this bar here?" he slaps his palm on the bar, "I built this bar with me own two hands. I planed it and sanded it myself, stained it with my own sweat and blood. See how even and just it is? Have you ever seen a nicer bar? But do the people here call me McGregor the bar builder? Noooo....
"Now look outside. See that stone wall there? See how flat the top is and how straight it runs? I built that wall with my own two hands. I carried and set every stone meself. But do they call me McGregor the mason? Nooo!
"And out there in the water... you see that pier? I built that pier too, with my own hands. In all the winter storms, year in and year out, that pier never budges! I made that pier with my own sweat and blood. But do they call me McGregor the pier builder? Nooo."
Then the Scotsman takes a sip of beer and says in a low voice "but you @#^# one sheep . . ."
Um... dunno, FIRM....
they are both cute on the outside, equivolent intelligence, and both bleat incessantly when in the spotlight....
tough choice
And it's not like they did anything really horrific, like smoking a cigarette afterwards...
Sheep are OK but you have to run around too far to kiss em.
Eweeeeee......!!!
I think I going to have to go with the one on the right. All I have to say about the one on the left is "ewe."
LOL
Great minds think alike, check #21
The reason for all this questionable behavior can be blamed on the local bestseller at the bookstore. "The Stump Broke Calf and the Minister's Son".
I had planned on Lamb Chops for dinner tonight - I just changed my mind.
He was hoping for silence of the lambs, but they gave him away. A little leg of lamb is good whith a glass of chianti.
Why do scotsman wear kilts?
So the sheep won't be scared by the sound of a zipper.
hip boots at his knees was the first clue...
I know which one I would pick, but I definitely see why you would compare the two... LOL
Ping
Actually I think it was the Rolling Stone's song...Hey McCloud get off of my ewe.
York PA-- where men are men and sheep are nervous...
