- Retail crime statistics reveal 146 incidents every single day in Scotland this year, with Sud, who owns 11 stores, describing the current environment as "the worst it had ever been."
- Sud claims the mother used a second child, estimated at 2 years old, to create a distraction, describing the event as "calculated" and alleging the parent gave instructions before purchasing items.
