A charity box being taken from Bicester North Station
THIS is the moment a “callous and heartless” thief stole one of three dog-shaped charity boxes from two Oxfordshire rail stations.
The CCTV image shows the man taking a three foot-high Guide Dogs collection box from Bicester North Station.
The boxes, which raise funds to provide mobility for people who are blind and partially sighted, were taken between Friday, November 9, and Tuesday, November 13, from Banbury and Bicester stations.
British Transport Police investigating officer Gary Archer said: “Around 3.50am on Friday, November 9, CCTV captured a man entering Bicester North station before removing two collection boxes.”
A box was also taken from Banbury station sometime between Friday, November 9, and Tuesday, November 13.
