The mother of one of the accused says the teens admitted to killing two lambs. The parent of one of the teens addressed rumors in the community, saying the incident was not a satanic ritual and was not school related.

Central Cambria School Officials said, "The school district only has the authority to impose discipline on students when the alleged misconduct occurs on school property or under district supervision."

According to the parent and school, several teens went coyote hunting over the weekend, but were unsuccessful. On their way home, they were surprised by two sheep that came charging at the group.

The startled teens beat the farm animals with a firearm and field-dressed them.

The parent, who doesn't want to be identified, said, "They did and cut them up, but just as they would have if they were hunting, they felt it was a sin to waste the meat and they didn't know what to do."

Channel 6 News found out the teens involved apologized to the farmer and made restitution. They are to work on the farm to pay off the rest of the debt to the farmer.
