CCTV images captures the moment thieves stole cooking oil from a pub in High Wycombe.

Staff at The Harrow in Warrendene Road, High Wycombe, said they have been victim to multiple thefts in recent weeks for their drums used to store cooking oil.

Images shared by the pub shows two men trying to open the fence at 6.30am.

One man can be seen trying to undo the padlock. He then jumps over the fence and steals a can of oil.

Another man is seen in the video appearing to be standing next to a white van. 

The pub said on Facebook: "Had another visit from the oil thieving b*******this morning despite having added padlocks to all my back gates they still got in to remove my oil cans....exactly the same time 6.32am but this time a different day.

"Someone out there must know who these scum bags are."

Prior to this theft, thieves were caught breaking into the back of the same pub stealing oil drums.

They then left all of the oil drums along the road and put the empty drums into their skip.
