A thief with a penchant for technology stole a laptop and iPad from a student home in Iffley Road.

The burglary occurred near the corner of Marston Street overnight on Saturday.

It is believed the thief entered the property through an insecure window.

Police have issued a warning to residents and students to make sure all doors and windows are locked, bins are moved away from walls and fence areas and to lock high value items away.
