I`ve got to have some basic working knowledge of the law but i`m no copper and to be honest you only arrest as last resort....We had an incident on the park 2 weeks ago when a member of sainsburys checkout staff stopped a shoplifter from exiting the store with 2 bottles of wkd and a packet of fishcakes....false arrest occured and shoplifter got away scot free....

the law is an ass

[JamesV6CDX]

False arrest - in the sense that the arrest was unlawful?

[bertiecbx550]

yeah but she will come back and she will get copped either here or the main shopping centre in town they always do....

Anymore info about specifically why the arrest was unlawful? Did Police attend?

[bertiecbx550]

Yep james she did not leave the store so in effect did not commit a crime...yep we had 2 cars and a paddy wagon but when they did their checks she was not wanted for anything outstanding so they let her on her way sainsburys told her she was banned and we banned her from the park....

I guess in theory if she didn't leave the store it's a tricky one... but the intent was still clearly there!

Yeah, but to prove the intent she has to actually leave the premises with the stolen articles.

Hence why she got away...
These people always seem to get caught out in the end...
