Child rape– youngest boy ever put on sex offenders register
The youth, who cannot be named because of his age, was 13 when he attacked his victim in May last year, Lancashire Police said.
Now aged 14, he admitted sexual assault and sexual touching at Blackpool Youth Court on Monday and was sentenced to a 12-month referral order.
He was also placed on the sex offenders register for two-and-a-half years.
Police said the boy, who now lives in Merseyside, is the youngest person in Lancashire to be placed on the register.
The court was told the youth was a sexual abuse victim who was “mimicking” the behaviour of his attacker.
Under the terms of the referral order he will undergo counselling and supervision by a youth offending team.
