A SHOPLIFTER banned from stores in three west Cumbrian towns has been warned he will face jail if he continues to offend.
Cumbria Police will be using the next week to showcase the work that their officers do in the region.
Data from the Met shows officers attended 38% of shoplifting call-outs in the year to April 2023.
The force sent officers to just 38 per cent of incidents during 2022/23, the lowest attendance rate in five years, new figures show.
The kits, part of Operation Retail, will be used when CCTV footage is the only line of enquiry, no violence or weapons are involved and the suspect is not a repeat offender.
