Thames Valley Police have destroyed several cars after they were seized.
In a video uploaded to social media, the force showed how three seized cars were disposed of in an Oxfordshire scrapheap.
The vehicles had been taken by officers in Blewbury, Didcot on Monday, March 25, after all three cars had become bogged down in fields.
This had caused what officers described as “significant criminal damage” to the fields causing them to be seized by the force.
