A Lithuanian lorry driver was abducted after he parked in a lay-by on the A34 near Bicester to take a nap.

The driver was assaulted by three men and his lorry was taken to Liverpool docks during the early hours of Thursday, where 25 pallets of power tools were loaded in white Transit vans.

The driver was asleep in his Scania lorry in the lay-by near Weston-on-the-Green, on the A34 southbound between junction nine of the M40 and the Peartree interchange.

Anyone with information should call Det Con Jill Morton on 08458 505505.
