A drunk 14-year-old girl had to be resuscitated by a Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) when she stopped breathing.

The teenager and her friend, also 14, were found unconscious at a skate park in Grove, near Wantage, at about 7.15pm last Friday.

Both had drunk large amounts of vodka and one had stopped breathing.

PCSO Sue Harris carried out first aid and managed to resuscitate the girl and stayed with her until the ambulance arrived.

Sgt Claire Storry, of Wantage neighbourhood policing team, said: "Due to the prompt action of the PCSO, and luckily for the girls, both recovered with no lasting damage. Their irresponsible actions could have had fatal consequences and cost them their lives.

"We will continue to gather evidence during our patrols to ensure the right people and places are being targeted and will confiscate alcohol from the under-18s.

"I would like to remind people that anyone who supplies alcohol to under-18s will also be prosecuted.

"We will continue to send patrols of officers and PCSOs to known hotspots for youngsters gathering in locations across the Wantage area in an attempt to tackle underage drinking."

PCSO Harris was at the scene with PCSO Howard Pack.
