A KILLJOY has been stealing signs in Wallingford advertising a funfair.

A thief has taken the signs for the third year running, from various spots in the town centre and neighbouring Crowmarsh.

Police did not specify the event the signs related to, but said they disappeared between April 20 and 27.

Officers have appealed for information, stating: "The signs are on hardboard and taken down when the fair is over so that they can be re-used.

"This is the third year it has happened in the area.

"If you have seen any suspicious-looking people or vehicles in the area, or have any information relating to this message, please call 101 and quote reference 43180126538."
