Workplace Mug Theft On The Rise

An alarming new trend is sweeping the nation, the theft of people's personal mugs and cups from their places of work.


"We see this as a corporate crime," says Staffordshire Police spokesman PC Barry Shanks. "White collar crime at its absolute worst. In some ways, this is one of the worst crimes a crim can commit, it's close to identity theft. We are taking this very seriously indeed and have already set up a taskforce and hotline."

EYE ON STOKE editor Monty Deschanel says: "This is a real crime that affects real people, not just high powered executives like me. You could be next. Think about that before your grubby, sticky fingers think about taking that Audrey Hepburn mug from the work kitchen."
