A 25-year-old man is in custody after a spate of thefts in north Oxfordshire.

The man was arrested at 1.50am this morning on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle and theft from a motor vehicle.

The arrest was in connection with a motorbike stolen from Kings Sutton and a loading ramp stolen from Middleton Stoney.

It was the first arrest made by Cherwell police who are running this year’s Operation Juggernaut - targeting antisocial behaviour, burglary, robbery, knife and drug crime and drug offending around Bicester and Banbury over the summer period.
