A shoplifter arrested in Kenilworth on Sunday (September 7) was actually wanted on recall to prison.

Warwickshire Police received reports of the thefts on the Retail Radio, with reports of a man and woman stealing packs of meat and Hot Wheels toy cars in the town centre.

PCSO Morgan chased them in foot and managed to stop both with help from Warwickshire Operational Patrol Unit.

"Whilst out on a routine foot patrol in the town, PCSO Morgan spotted our light-fingered friends," a force statement said.

"She was hot on their heels.

"Albeit they opted for the well-known tactic of divide and conquer, they weren't so fortunate on this occasion.

"PCSO Morgan managed to stop the male and with assistance from our colleagues from OPU Warwickshire, he was arrested.

"This turned out to be a very beneficial stop, as the male was wanted on recall to prison."
