THREE men have been arrested on suspicion of poaching offences and possessing a catapult.

The men were arrested last Thursday on suspicion of poaching and possession of an offensive weapon after they were stopped by officers on the Ridgeway in Moulsford, Wallingford.

Police stopped a vehicle at about 11pm under what they said were suspicious circumstances. A catapult was found.

The men, aged 30, 28 and 23 and all from Tadley, Hampshire, have been released on bail until October 22.
