This is not at all surprising in Banbury. The town is a dangerous and violent place to live and maybe if the local Police were more competent & pro-active and spent more time on the streets rather than posing for photographs it would make the town a little safer!!
Banbury police have a notorious reputation for being lazy & ineffective and this is the result! The police are partly responsible for this crime and that’s why criminals know that this town is an easy touch when it comes to crime. Shame on them!
