A 54-year-old Agoura man has been arrested on suspicion of sexually assaulting at least four horses at ranches on Cornell Road, authorities said Thursday.

Lost Hills-based sheriff's Detective Chris Germann said the man, whose name was not released, was arrested June 6 and released on $15,000 bail. He is scheduled to be arraigned in Malibu Superior Court on July 9.

``There's some sick people out there,'' Germann said.

The assaults of at least two male and two female horses were reported in early June, police said. Residents said they noticed injuries on their horses and notified authorities.
