The 15-year-old said he was approached by a police community support officer after he wiped the snot on Cameron's back while the politician was engaged in a TV interview outside a shopping center in Hastings, England, The Daily Mail reported Wednesday.

He said the officer issued him a warning for anti-social behavior and told him to apologize to the Conservative leader.

"I don't care if he's the Tory leader or what. This is an anti-social behavior intervention form for anti-social behavior towards David Cameron, namely sneezing in your hand and wiping it down his jacket," the officer reportedly told the teen.

However, the boy said he was not forced to apologize in person after speaking with one of Cameron's aides.

The teenager, who described himself as "Green Party through and through," said his actions did not constitute a political statement.

"It's not really that funny. I know it's not big. I just did it for a laugh. I sneezed and my hand just went down his jacket," he said.
