Police continued with a shop theft crackdown in Worksop on Sunday by arresting and charging two suspects.

A 40-year-old man was arrested and charged with four counts of theft after electrical and laundry items were stolen from local supermarkets between 9 March and 4 April.

He was also charged with possessing cannabis.

Another suspected thief was detained outside the Sainsbury’s supermarket in Rhodesia after pharmaceutical items worth more than £300 were taken from the shelves.

A 29-year-old woman was later charged with theft.

Both suspects, who are not known to each other, are due to appear at Mansfield Magistrates’ Court on 6 May.

Inspector Rob Harrison, district commander for Bassetlaw, said: “Sunday was a very productive day for the neighbourhood team, who also picked up another suspect who was wanted on recall to prison.

“Retail crime is a blight on the hard-working business who are so valuable to our town.

“As we work with our local partners to improve our collective resilience to this issue, I want to be clear with those people committing these offences that they too can expect to come face to face with a police officer.”
