A SNEAKY couple hid several bottles of spirits under their food shop and made off without paying for the booze.

The man and woman covered the alcohol with the good items in a trolley before leaving Asda, in Longforth Road, Wellington.

The security tags of the bottles had been removed before the two paid for the food without making any attempts to pay for the drink.

The man is described as 5ft 8in to 5ft 10in, with dark coloured hair, of slim build.

He was wearing black trainers, light coloured jeans with a sleeveless blue denim top with a long sleeve black top underneath.

The woman is described as white, of average build and was wearing blue trousers and a blue jacket with dark, shoulder length hair and brown shoes.

Both are aged in their late 20s or early 30s.

Anyone who can help should call Crimestoppers on 0800-555111…
