Suspected shoplifter wanted by cops mocked for looking like Hollywood film director – can you tell who?
A SUSPECTED shoplifter wanted by cops has been mocked for looking like film director Guy Ritchie.
Police issued CCTV images of a bloke they want to quiz over two thefts at a Tesco Express supermarket.
Multiple incidents of shoplifting were reported at a Tesco Express store in Winwick Road, Warrington
The man is believed to have left the Warrington store without paying.
But the Cheshire Police appeal was met with laughter online, when commenters clocked the man’s resemblance to the director of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
One, Mark Kerfoot, joked: “Guy Ritchie in Warrington. Wow.”
Kirsty Algie wrote: “Bold as brass, not a care in the world.”
Meanwhile, Lee James added: “Cost of living has got him robbing.”
The ribbing has not deterred cops from probing the thefts on September 10 and September 25.
PC Sam Horton said: “Inquiries are ongoing.
“We would like to speak to the man pictured in the CCTV image.
“If anyone recognises this man, please contact us via cheshire.police.uk/tell-us or call 101, quoting IML-1654528.
“I would also like to appeal directly to the man pictured to come forward.”
