Police are appealing for witnesses after a unicycle was stolen from inside student halls of residence in Oxford.

Some time between 8.45pm and 9pm on June 4, a man was seen entering the student halls of Ruskin College in Dunstan Road, Headington, and stealing the unicycle.

The man is described as white and was wearing a black jacket.

PC Rebecca Froud said: “It appears that the man initially took the unicycle outside of the student halls and abandoned it, but has then come back later and stolen it.

“This is quite a unique unicycle and I would be keen to hear from anyone who lives in the area who may have seen the man with it, or someone who might have seen a unicycle similar to this being used.”

Anyone with information should contact PC Froud via the 24-hour Thames Valley Police Enquiry Line on 0845 8 505 505. Alternatively, you can contact the Crimestoppers charity anonymously on 0800 555 111.
