A 17-YEAR-OLD has been given a supervision order for sexually assaulting a woman at a railway station.
The teenager from Brierfield, who cannot be named, pleaded guilty to the offence, which occurred at Accrington station last October.
He also admitted two counts of using threatening words or behaviour on separate occasions.
The youth must pay £100 compensation, plus £85 costs and Hyndburn magistrates imposed a nine-month supervision order.
