Thieves stole electric machinery from a school in Oxford.

Police have appealed for information after a groundsman's warehouse was broken into at St Edward's School, Woodstock Road, some time between 8pm on Saturday and 1pm on Tuesday.

They stole electrical machinery, including generators, a water pump and a lawnmower.

Pc Robin Barrett, said: "The thieves stole machinery that would have needed to have been transported by a vehicle.

"I would also like to remind residents to be aware of anyone who might be offering this machinery for sale and that handling stolen goods is an offence."

Anyone with information should contact police on 08458 505505 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
