Police officer who scanned £9.95 Krispy Kreme dougnuts as 7p carrots says it was ‘an honest mistake’
He said people could be given a “cake fine” if they were having a bad
day, or if they were joining or leaving a department.
Pc Read said he was buying the carrots for his sergeant who was on a
diet, and he thought it “would be funny” for them to be in a Krispy
Kreme paper bag.
He said he stuck the carrots barcode onto the donut tray, as it would
have spoiled the joke if he stuck it on the paper bag.
