Thieves broke into 12 cars parked at an Abingdon leisure centre last night and stole valuables while the owners were playing five-a-side football.

Police were alerted following the thefts at Tilsley park football and athletics centre in Dunmore Road, which happened between 9pm and 10pm.

The footballers returned to their vehicles to find cash, mobile phones and wallets stolen.

It is understood there is no CCTV covering the car park at the leisure centre.
