The moment elderly shopper rebuffs Iceland thief with bacon

This is the moment an 86-year-old woman "defended herself" with a packet of bacon against a would-be thief in an Iceland supermarket.

Police said the shopper "defended herself by repeatedly hitting the female offender over the head with the packet of bacon" in a Facebook post.

But CCTV obtained by Altrincham Today, external suggests the police report was slightly more dramatic than the actual incident,

The BBC has approached Greater Manchester Police (GMP) for comment.
