Police are appealing for witnesses after overhead power cables were stolen in Ramsden.
It is believed that the offenders used a tree to pull the cables towards the ground, and then short-circuited the electricity with a chain. The cables would have then been cut whilst the power was interrupted.
These overhead power cables normally carry 11,000 volts.
The theft happened on Saturday at about 5pm If you have any information regarding the incident, please call 0845 8 505 505, the 24-hour Thames Valley Police non-emergency number. If you don’t want to speak to police or give your name, please call the Crimestoppers charity anonymously on 0800 555 111.
