Police Interceptors may have helped “prevent an alcohol shortage in North Wales” after officers stopped a suspected shoplifter in Deeside. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Along with Roads Policing officers they pulled over a car and found a hoard of alcohol including more than a dozen bottles of Champagne, bottles of brandy and Jack Daniels, toilets rolls and towels were also among the stash.  ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

In a post on the team’s Facebook page a spokesperson said: “Is today the day the Interceptors help prevent an alcohol shortage in North Wales?” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“With a helping hand from our colleagues from NorthWales Police Roads Policing Unit, we stopped a car in Deeside and this is what we found.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“We weren’t in the spirit to be fooled by the suspect’s adaptions to his number plate to cover his tracks either” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“He threw in the towel when he realised his shoplifting tour in North Wales had come to an end.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
