A 45-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of attempted burglary in Oxford after neighbours alerted police.

Officers were called to a property in Old Road shortly after 1pm, after residents spotted a man acting suspiciously had climbed on to a flat roof of a neighbouring property.

The man was arrested near to the scene of the incident and has been bailed to reappear at St Aldates on January 12, 2010.
