Shoppers are being reminded to keep an eye on their bags, purses and wallets after light-fingered thieves struck at a supermarket.

The reminder comes after a woman was shopping in the Fiveways supermarket at the Triangle shopping centre, Frinton.

A spokesman for Walton police said the woman was in the fruit and vegetable section. But when she turned around, her bag, containing her purse, was missing.

It happened at 11.45am on Friday.
