The group of kids have been causing criminal damage, have been interfering with vehicles and committing “general disorder” around Banbury, police said.

But over the past few weeks, Thames Valley Police’s Banbury neighbourhood policing team has been working “closely” with residents, businesses and partner agencies.

This has been to gather evidence and to build a clear picture of what’s been happening around the town with the kids.

In an update on Monday afternoon, police said: “We’re pleased to say that an arrest has been made today as part of this ongoing work.

Oxford University Hospitals (OUH) staff members Maddy Ellison and Jasmin Conway were presented with Chief Midwifery Officer Award certificates by NHS England for their outstanding contributions to infant feeding support as part of the OUH Infant Feeding Team.

The awards celebrate individuals who consistently demonstrate the NHS values in their everyday roles and make a positive difference to patient care.

Milica Redfearn, director of midwifery at OUH, and Sharon Andrews, head of midwifery at OUH, said: “They have transformed early postnatal care through their daily delivery of ‘early days infant feeding’ sessions, tailored support for families and staff, and the development of accessible education videos which were launched on World Patient Safety Day.
