Yes. I lived in Oxford for a while almost 3 years ago and anyone from that area will know of Cowley Road. I took a turning off it whilst totally lost and pulled up to read my street map. A group of Asian youths came over to my car and asked what I doing there and I explained I was lost. They seemed to accept that but told me to go on my way as 'people like me' weren't welcome around there and if I ever showed my face there again...well, work it out.
I later went to the local police station, they took a statement and asked if I'd recognise any of them again. When I told them I probably wouldn't be able to, they said they'd keep it on file but told me there would be little they could do.
I get the impression that had the races been reversed, the police response would have been different.
