The police helicopter was in action above Wantage Road today as officers responded to concerns for a person's welfare.
National Police Air Service (NPAS) Benson's Twitter account said the helicopter had been sent to support Thames Valley Police at 12.30pm.
Police spokeswoman Connie Primmer said the force would not give out any more information about the incident as it was a welfare issue.
