Two men have been charged following an investigation by Lancashire Police into thefts from Morrisons totalling £30,000.

In an update posted today, Lancashire Police said:

“We know that you like to be kept up to date on what we are doing, so we thought we’d tell you about a call we received from security staff employed by Morisons on Friday.

Our officers were called to Morisons in Amy Johnson Way, Blackpool, at 8.58am following reports of an ongoing theft.

It was reported that a man was purchasing low-cost items but leaving the store without paying for other items he had hidden within his clothing.

It was also reported that a second man was de-tagging bottles of champagne and then passing them to the first man.

Our officers have attended, and two men were arrested.

Following consultation with the Crown Prosecution Service, two men were charged on Friday night with conspiring to steal from a shop.

They are: Alexandru Voicu, 45, of Stirling Road, Birmingham, and David Enache, 23, of no fixed address.

These charges related to six alleged offences.

Enquiries over the weekend into allegations of thefts totalling approximately £30,000 at Morisons stores across the country, saw the men charged with a further count of conspiring to steal from a shop.

They were both remanded into custody to appear at court this morning.

Our enquiries are ongoing.”
