Event Horizo   10 #2 Posted June 3, 2015 T he man – who we are not naming – was seen dancing in the freezer aisle in Sheffield, South Yorks, waving a fairy wand.  Maybe he cast a spell on the manager Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

ryder8904 Â Â 10 #5 Posted June 4, 2015 Right before you jump to any conclusions... the article states the thief is to appear in COURT next month over allegations of shoplifting. Do you know how many times you need to get caught before you end up in court? Â And to go to court over a bottle of shampoo would suggest to me that this person has been in prison before for shoplifting and has broken some kind of court order against him. Â As for the assault allegations, this sounds to me like a bitter member of staff, probably one of the know it all, old women sat moaning on the tills have called the police or the mirror newspaper and accused their boss of been heavy handed in dealing with a shoplifter. Â The manager will have to justify his actions to the police, not the daily mirror. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

ryder8904 Â Â 10 #7 Posted June 4, 2015 Yes. Best not jump to conclusions. Â Perhaps not the best opening statement, but I work in this industry and trust me, that bloke is prolific if he is ending up in court over shampoo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
haddy   10 #8 Posted June 4, 2015 Quite clearly a known shoplifting to go to court. Your first offences you get a ticket for so looks like there is 2 sides to this story. Possibly a violent shoplifter or some thing a like Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
