A CCTV image of a man police would like to speak to in connection with the theft of an iPhone from a shop has been released.

The theft took place at Tesco Express in Station Road, Cuffley, between 6.45pm and 7.05pm on Wednesday, May 11.

The phone’s owner accidentally left his mobile behind after using one of the store’s self-service checkouts.

When he returned to get it, the iPhone 4 had gone.

Pc Ross Freeman said: “I am appealing to anyone who recognises the man in the CCTV images to get in touch as I am hoping he will be able to help with my investigation.”
