A BEEFORD man has appeared at Hull Crown Court after being accused of performing a sex act on himself while trying to touch a horse rider.
Rodney James Walker, 42, of Main Street, appeared before Judge John Dowse on Monday in the dock of court one charged with sexually assaulting a woman and exposing his genitals.
No pleas were entered during the hearing and his barrister Anil Murray said he needed a psychiatric report to see if he was fit enough to plead.
Judge Dowse granted Mr Walker, who has severe learning difficulties, bail on the condition that he must reside at his home address; must not go within 100 metres of a stables, bridle path or equestrian event except in the course of employment; and he must not approach any female on horseback.
He is due to appear back in court on April 5.
