Underwear, washing liquid, deodorant and fake eyelashes are among the £300 worth of items recovered from a shoplifting suspect in Margate.

Two PCSOs, Jake Angell and Adam Herod, were on patrol in the high street on Thursday when they saw a person acting suspiciously.

Clothing and a host of other items were found

Having heard a report of a theft in a shop nearby, the pair confronted the woman and stopped her leaving until a town centre police officer arrived and arrested her.

Two bags of suspected stolen items filled with cosmetics and clothing were recovered.

Pictures released by police show clothing items from Pep & Co - the brand sold in Poundland stores.
