Peanut butter thief apprehended

An Oxford thief was caught when his DNA was found on the spoon left in the peanut butter jar of one of his victims.

Declan Williamson was jailed last Friday after admitting to a string of burglaries and vehicle crimes, including stealing a car and crashing it into a tree.

The 19-year-old also broke into homes and garages in Cowley. Stolen items included whisky, chainsaws, an air rifle, port and a television. He was jailed for two years, and banned from driving for a subsequent two years.
