The individual was stopped on Friday
Two police officers were assaulted whilst arresting a driver in Banbury on Friday.
The individual turned nasty whilst being arrested on suspicion of the theft of a motor vehicle and having no licence or insurance, along with possession with intent to supply drugs and drug driving.
An assault on two police officers and criminal damage to a police vehicle were added to this list.
A spokesperson for Thames Valley Policer said: “Assaults on emergency workers are completely unacceptable. Our officers work tirelessly to keep our roads and communities safe, and they should never have to face violence for doing their job.”
