Spanish Civil War Memorial to be erected in Oxford
A memorial stone commemorating those who died in the Spanish Civil War is to be erected in Oxford.
The 1.8m (5.9ft) artwork will depict a clenched fist crushing a scorpion alongside the names of six men who travelled from Oxford to Spain to fight in the conflict.
It will stand at the junction Of Headington Road and Morrell Avenue.
It was approved by the Oxford City Council's West Area Planning Committee on Tuesday evening.
At about 20:20 a man in his 30s was alone in a house in Station Road when his front door was kicked in and a man threatened him with what is believed to be a machete.
He was joined by a second man and the two left the house with three stolen shotguns and associated gun cartridges, before driving off in a small dark-coloured hatchback car, which had been parked nearby.
The first suspect is white and was wearing a dark woolly hat with a scarf around his face, a dark coat with the hood pulled up, khaki or blue trousers and bright yellow running shoes.
The second suspect black, about 6ft, with dreadlocks.
The daugher of Oxford University academics, Ms Dick is currently a director-general at the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office and was previously the country's most senior female police officer - and the national lead for police counter-terrorism.
She was the commander in charge of the operation in which the innocent Brazilian electrician Jean Charles de Menezes was shot dead two weeks after the 2005 London Bombings.
A jury later found the Met had broken health and safety laws, but found there was "no personal culpability for Commander Cressida Dick".

County council does not support health plan for region
Oxfordshire County Council cannot support plans to deal with a £134m funding gap in the region's NHS.
The county's cabinet said yesterday Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group, which commissions health services across the county, needed to be more transparent and coherent in the plan to save money in the region's healthcare system.
The sustainability and transformation plan (STP) said that some services - including a consultant-led maternity ward at the Horton General Hospital in Banbury - could be axed to save money.

Oxford Conservatives complain about homeless 'disgrace' comment
