Officers investigating an assault in Poole are issuing CCTV images of the suspects.

At approximately 12pm on Monday 9 May 2022, a female store manager in the Aldi supermarket in Pitwines Close approached two people she suspected of shoplifting in the store. It is reported that the store manager was pushed by the suspects and was subjected to racial abuse.

Police Constable Alex Sharp, of Poole police, said: “Dorset Police takes all reports of hate crime very seriously and we are carrying out a full investigation into this matter.

“As part of my enquiries into this incident I am in a position to issue CCTV images of the two suspects, and I would urge anyone who recognises them to please contact Dorset Police.

“There were a number of people in the store at the time of the incident and I would ask anyone who saw what happened and has not yet spoken to police, to please come forward.”
