CCTV footage captured the moment a man entered a church, seemingly picked the lock of the collection box, and made off with the cash inside.
The footage, which lasts close to three-minutes, shows the alleged theft from a church in Radley at around 10.25am on Saturday (June 24).
It takes the man around a minute-and-a-half to open the collection box and take the money from inside. He then puts the cover of the box back in place.
