A SEX attacker, dubbed the Beast of Bath, who has admitted assaulting a number of women across Bath city centre, is a former student at Kingsmead Community School in Wiveliscombe.

Firefighter Adrian Warburton - also known as Michael - preyed on women for ten months in Bath, carrying out late night attacks on lone females as they walked home from pubs and clubs.

The 37-year-old, who is married with two children, often wore a balaclava and grabbed his victims from behind, before being caught during one of the biggest police undercover operations in the West. He is now facing prison and is due to be sentenced on March 17 at Bristol Crown Court after psychological and psychiatric reports have been consulted.

But the County Gazette can exclusively reveal that Warburton attended Bishops Lydeard Primary School, Kingsmead Community School and Richard Huish College.
