When the constable – who cannot be named for legal reasons – was stopped by security staff at the Sainsbury’s in Bristol, he told them: “I was being a bit cheeky and thought I would chance it”.

The officer had placed 71 items in his shopping bags totalling £120.18 but had self-scanned only 38 of them, paying just £45.14.
