I was in Spar in Cotteridge Sunday evening. A young lad about 15/16 ran in to the shop, grabbed a large box of Budweiser and ran out. I was absolutely fuming and shocked. Local shops be aware of this low life thief! He’s about 5ft 6” slim, grey baggy joggers, black jacket with hood up. Didn’t see his face unfortunately. Spar said that he takes items regularly and runs back out. I advised Spar to plaster his face from the CCTV cameras all over the shop windows, so people can see him.
