Supermarket staff had a shock when a man arrived wearing just a sock but not on his foot!
At 3.30am this morning, the near-naked man arrived at the Asda store in Turner Road, Colchester, to do his shopping.
Det Sgt Roger Napier, of Colchester police, said: "The man turned up wearing just a sock and it was not on his foot. The staff there gave him a bag of shopping just to get rid of him."
"We do get things like this happening from time to time, we just put it down to the hot weather making people do silly things."
