About us

Local policing teams are groups of officers dedicated to serving the community. Teams are made up of officers based in the area, supported by additional officers from the wider area. 

Teams work closely with local authorities, organisations, partners and residents to decide policing priorities. This helps teams find long-term solutions to local problems.

    Shoplifting - London Road, Headington

    Issued 04 June 2026

    Action taken:

    The Oxford North East Neighbourhood Team has been working closely with local residents and businesses following concerns raised about repeated thefts from shops along London Road. Your feedback has been invaluable in helping us understand the scale of the issue and identify the most affected locations. In response, officers have significantly increased patrols, both on foot and in uniformed vehicles, providing a highly visible presence to deter offending and offer reassurance to those who work and live in the area.

    As a result of this targeted activity, one individual was identified, arrested, interviewed, and subsequently charged with seven separate shoplifting offences. This positive outcome demonstrates the effectiveness of swift reporting and targeted patrols. Officers continue to monitor this individual closely, and ongoing reports from businesses and members of the public help us build a fuller picture of their offending behaviour, supporting further enforcement where necessary.

    Additionally, another male, previously issued with a Community Protection Warning (CPW) for persistent begging and shoplifting, was identified again through both community reports and proactive policing. After his behaviour escalated, the CPW was upgraded to a Community Protection Notice (CPN), which places clear, enforceable restrictions on his conduct. Despite these measures, he continued to breach the conditions of the notice, leading officers to arrest him for the breach. He has since been placed on court bail with strict conditions, preventing him from engaging in further begging or shoplifting in the affected areas. Officers continue to liaise with partner agencies to ensure he also receives support to address underlying factors linked to his behaviour.

    Alongside enforcement, our team is working with local businesses to provide crime prevention advice, including improving staff awareness, enhancing store layouts to reduce opportunities for theft, and encouraging prompt reporting. We are also maintaining close links with shop managers, security staff, Oxfordshire County Council, and community safety partners to ensure a joined up approach.

    We strongly encourage residents and businesses to continue reporting any incidents or suspicious behaviour to the police. Your information directly supports our work—every report helps us identify patterns, allocate patrols effectively, and take robust action against those who repeatedly target local shops.
    Offences in this area will continue to be dealt with firmly, and we remain committed to supporting the local business community and keeping London Road a safe place to shop, work, and visit.

  • Priority:

    Use of E-Scooters and illegal E-Bikes.

    Issued 04 June 2026

    Action taken:

    We continue to receive reports of illegal e scooters being used across the North East Oxford area, including instances where riders are operating them in a dangerous or reckless manner. Such behaviour poses a significant risk, not only to the riders themselves, but also to pedestrians, cyclists, and other road users.

    Our team conducts daily patrols across key locations within the neighbourhood. During these patrols, officers engage with riders to provide clear and practical advice regarding the law surrounding e scooters, including where they can and cannot be used. Where appropriate, we take robust enforcement action, which includes the seizure of illegal e scooters. Some of these vehicles are capable of reaching speeds of up to 40mph, making them highly dangerous when used on pavements, shared pathways, or in busy residential areas.

    We also carry out targeted operations in areas where we receive higher volumes of reports. These operations involve both high visibility patrols and plain clothes officers, focusing our resources where they are most needed to reduce harm, deter offenders, and improve public safety. Regular intelligence-led operations help us identify repeat locations and persistent offenders, ensuring that we are tackling the issue effectively and consistently.

    In addition to enforcement, we continue to work with partner organisations and local stakeholders to raise awareness about the laws surrounding e scooters. It is important for the public to understand that privately owned e scooters cannot be used legally on public roads, pavements, cycle lanes, or shared spaces, and may only be used on private land with the landowner’s permission.

    If you are experiencing issues related to e scooters in your neighbourhood, or if you witness dangerous or anti-social riding, please report this to us via 101 or through the Thames Valley Police online web form. Public reports are crucial, they help us identify hotspots, understand patterns of behaviour, and take effective action to address the problem.
    Your continued cooperation plays a vital role in keeping our community safe, and we thank residents for their ongoing support and vigilance.

    This month we have received reports relating to the anti-social use of E-Bikes and off road bikes in Croft Road recreation ground. We are now completing regular patrols in this area.

    Increase in theft of pedal cycle and theft from motor vehicle - John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford

    Issued 04 June 2026

    Action taken:

    We would like to update the community on the continued work being carried out by the North East Oxford Neighbourhood Team regarding Theft of Pedal Cycles and Theft from Motor Vehicles—both of which remain top priorities for us.
    Since the start of the year, we are pleased to report that there has been only one incident of theft from a motor vehicle at the John Radcliffe Hospital. This positive outcome is largely due to the excellent communication and partnership working between John Radcliffe Hospital staff and Thames Valley Police. Their vigilance, along with prompt reporting and information sharing, has played a crucial role in reducing opportunities for offenders.

    However, theft of pedal cycles continues to be an ongoing challenge. High value bikes and unsecured cycles remain attractive targets for offenders operating quickly and often without drawing attention. To combat this, the hospital grounds are supported by extensive CCTV coverage, which is being used proactively to deter offenders and aid in the identification of suspects.
    Thames Valley Police are also conducting regular operations aimed at preventing thefts and catching those responsible. These operations include high visibility patrols, covert activity, and targeted engagement around cycle racks and known hotspots. Despite these efforts, we rely heavily on timely and accurate information from the public.

    Feedback collected through recent “Have Your Say” events and community surveys has shown a worrying trend: many victims do not report their stolen bikes, assuming nothing can be done, or believing the bike is unlikely to be recovered. Unfortunately, if thefts are not reported, we cannot build an accurate picture of offending patterns, nor can we investigate or deploy resources effectively. Reports help us identify trends, hotspots, suspect descriptions, and repeat victims—information that is vital in reducing crime.
    We take the theft of pedal cycles extremely seriously and understand the financial impact, inconvenience, and frustration that victims experience. A reported theft is the first step in both an investigation and broader problem solving.
    If you have been a victim, or witness suspicious activity, please report it via the THames Valley Police website.
