NOT guilty verdicts have been handed to a man who was accused of sexual assault.
Kieron White was on trial at Oxford Crown Court last week charged with one count of assault by penetration and one count of sexual assault.
It was alleged that on March 19, 2022 the 27-year-old had sexually assaulted a woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, at an address in Witney while she was drunk.

The court heard that Mr White was recovering from a stab wound at the time of the alleged offences.
On Monday afternoon (September 2), the jury returned verdicts of not guilty.
Mr White could be heard celebrating as he left the courtroom as he was acquitted of the offences.
