a woman has been arrested after helping herself to some of the 3,000 pounds worth of food that a Tesco Express had thrown out. Sasha Hall is said to have taken some potatoes, waffles, pies and ham that she had found on the street, following a power cut at the testco in Great baddow, Essex.
sources say she was shocked as she was approached by police and arrested for Theft by Finding. the 21 year old is now facing trial later this month.
she said of the matter. 'It had been thrown out, so i thought i could put it to better use. But when the police came round i was so upset. They made me feel like a terrible criminal.
People would believe police officers have better things to be doing with their time than going after people up potato waffles from the street. its all been blow out of proportion by offices while they waste tax payers money.
A tesco spokesman said: 'We are assisting the police with their inquiries. We seek to minimize waste in all our stores and where possible will seek to reuse and recycle it'
