A homeowner from Oxford has spoken about feeling trapped in his own home after strangers repeatedly had pizzas delivered to his address as a method of intimidation.

The Blackbird Leys resident insists these attacks on his property go beyond mere pranks, characterising them as ongoing victimisation.

Since the end of last year, the man has suffered damage to his front entrance, had filler pushed into door locks, and received numerous unrequested pizza orders at his property.

From his home, he said they had been forced to turn away pizza drivers, with one delivery costing £21 and another amounting to £38.

He added that they had contacted nearby pizza shops requesting they refuse any orders placed for his address because of the persistent harassment.

Our entrance has been covered in adhesive, meaning we must kick it to gain entry. The council has needed to install five replacement locks within four weeks. Repairs are expected to cost between £5,000 and £6,000.

To make matters worse, the resident is currently wearing a plaster cast on his foot after striking a pothole while operating his mobility scooter, which caused him to topple over.

He now expresses concern for the wellbeing of himself and his family.

He asked how much further this would go. He shares his home with his wife.

After the first incidents occurred, the resident installed security cameras at both the front and back of his house.

He has submitted accounts of all events to the police, but expressed dissatisfaction with what he called their unwillingness to pursue the matter.

He said the police had been considerably inadequate in their enquiries. They had never called on him, provided assistance, or tried to locate those responsible, despite his vulnerable circumstances.

He continued that he believes, and others in his organisation agree, that he is being targeted because of his association with the Oxfordshire Patriots, a collective that opposes government immigration policies.

Representatives from the police, council officials, local ward members, and even his constituency MP have suggested his troubles probably relate to his involvement with this collective, implying he would encounter fewer problems if he distanced himself from it.

He stressed that he keeps strict separation between his campaigning activities and his private life, including not flying any Union Jacks at his property.

A Thames Valley Police representative indicated that officers were looking into a harassment complaint reported on Knights Road in Oxford, covering the period from December 25 last year through to April 6 this year.

Officers have spoken with the person making the complaint on several occasions, providing advice on preventing crime and carrying out patrols in the area.

Anyone with pertinent information should get in touch, quoting reference 43260166838.

The individual involved in this case has not lodged a formal grievance with the force, though they would be encouraged to do so if they have worries about how officers have behaved.

The force operates a complaints procedure allowing members of the public to raise concerns about the force or its staff.

Every complaint undergoes detailed investigation, with the person raising it kept informed throughout.
