A police constable who took two packets of Jaffa Cakes from a charity stall without paying full price has been sacked from West Yorkshire Police.

PC Chris Dwyer paid just 10p for two packets of the snacks from Halifax police station's canteen instead of the correct amount of £1.

The 51-year-old also tried to "change and embellish" his story when quizzed about it, a misconduct hearing found.

He was found guilty of gross misconduct and given an instant dismissal.

The misconduct trial had heard the confectionery stall at Halifax police station - set up in aid of a charity trip to Uganda - sold crisps, chocolate and fizzy drinks priced at 50p each.

PC Dwyer went to the tuck shop on 21 January and after putting some money in the cash tin, removed two packets of Jaffa Cakes, the panel heard.

They had no issue employing dangerous perverts, but don't you dare take a jaffa cake without paying
