Daniel Smau-Mare, a local resident, said: 'Yesterday evening I heard banging on the door. I think it was the police. | |
"They were yelling to open the door but no-one did, so they smashed the door. I presume this is what they did because I heard noise; really bad noise." | |
Appealing for witnesses, Det Ch Insp Craig Kirby, of Thames Valley Police, said: "I understand that there will naturally be some concerns in the community, but I would like to reassure people that a full investigation is now taking place." |
