We reported today on how police came to the rescue of one hungry McDonald’s customer.

It seems that the courier assigned to the job made a complete meal of it, having his car seized after it emerged that he didn’t possess the right level of insurance cover.

He now faces a hefty fine of up to £5000, 6 points on his licence plus an additional recovery fee to re-claim his car, or risk having it crushed.

Not wishing to disappoint the hungry customer, the arresting officers then took it upon themselves to complete the delivery.

It’s not clear whether or not they were hoping for a tip!

I’ll see you again next week,
