Tesco staff have shared clips online of a man trashing the store after ‘being asked to wear a mask’.
The man was filmed at the Ealing store in London trashing the aisles, pulling crisps and popcorn packets onto the floor.
According to reports the man visited the store last month without a mask, with staff asking him to put on a face covering or leave.
Instead, the man started shouting and swearing before storming down the confectionary aisle and throwing anything he could grab on the floor.

In the video, staff and customers can be seen watching the man in shock.
The police were called to the store on Uxbridge Road at 9pm on September 22nd, following reports of anti social behaviour.
They said: “Officers arrested a man on suspicion of criminal damage. He was further arrested on suspicion of actual bodily harm in relation to an alleged assault (minor injury) on a staff member at the store.”
The man is set to appear at Uxbridge Magistrates’ Court on November 25th to answer charges of intending to destroy or damage property, and assault by beating.

Staff at shops can refuse entry to people who fail to wear a compulsory mask, or they can call the police. The fine for not wearing a mask is now £200.
A Tesco spokesperson said: “We’re grateful to the police for their assistance following a disturbance at our Tesco Express store on Uxbridge Road a number of weeks ago.”
