And finally… apples and carrots
A man has admitted stealing apples from Tesco on almost a dozen occasions by scanning them through a self-service machine as carrots.
Aidan Martin Devlin, 53, told Newtownards Magistrates Court that he scanned apples as carrots on 11 occasions, and did the same with another fruit on a twelfth occasion.
The thefts took place at Tesco in Newtownbreda in June and July this year, the Belfast Telegraph reports.
The case was adjourned for four weeks to allow a pre-sentence report to be prepared.
