A 16-year-old boy was arrested by police investigating a hate crime after pieces of ham were thrown at a mosque.
The teenager was held on suspicion of a religiously aggravated public order offence by officers called to Broadfield Mosque in Crawley, West Sussex.
Sussex Police said "real anguish and anxiety" was caused to worshippers who witnessed the incident as they left the mosque at around 4pm last Tuesday.
Eating pork and products made from it is strictly forbidden in Islam.
The arrested teenager, who is from the local area, has been freed on police bail pending further inquiries.
Sergeant Jim Collen, of Sussex Police, said: "This was a very unpleasant incident which has naturally caused real anguish and anxiety amongst worshippers at the mosque.
"Sussex Police take all reports of hate crime extremely seriously and this investigation will be no exception."

Islam is a war plan that has caused an unimaginable amount of “real anguish and anxiety”.
Poor kid, he needs an education. He should have thrown a complete pig.
Ohh The Hamanity!

Bull! They can have the ham but why share the bacon?
moslems always forget that when they get outside their sheltered environment of blood thirsty mullahs and assorted other nutcases they will have to face up to the fact that ham sandwiches are good ~ so good in fact their existence must have been decreed by Allah Himself eh!
A hate crime?
You mean a THOUGHT CRIME
What? They can’t take a joke?
He was just Hamming it up....
The cops should have just written the kid a porking ticket.
"If you eatin' SPAM, you ain't eatin' ham ..."

I sow what you did there.
I had a bunch of other puns but I didn’t want to hog them all.
There is nothing that can be thrown at a Christian church that would would warrant arrest.
Great film!
He just wanted to un-rind.
What a waste of ham. Should have thrown bacon grease or pig crap.
Guts.
Great point. We let the Muslims in our country, too. They use us and they do not assimilate.
meh, throwing is to inefficient, he should have chopped it up and blasted it out of a spud gun.
FYI:
If you get a chance - pick up a copy of “The Bin Ladens” by Steve Coll ...
In it, you will find that [when they were away from Saudi Arabia] they indulged in ALL KINDS of western hedonism - INCLUDING eating PORK !!!
