Thames Valley Police were videoed by a member of the public this week sledging on a riot shield. The film was taken off Berkely Road in Boars Hill, Oxford.
Supt Andy Murray commented, “The snow has a habit of bringing out the child in all of us.”
Using police equipment to play in the snow is against Thames Valley Police policy. However, the shield did prove an effective sledge, as one of the policemen demonstrates in the clip below.
