Shane Gleeson, who runs five Spar shops in the city, said that the items stolen most often are minerals, sweets and yogurt drinks, as people usually drop these items into their pockets.
Speaking on RTÉ's Today with Claire Byrne programme, he said:"It can be difficult to catch people doing that as they are quite skilled at this, however, you have to try avoid accusing someone of doing something wrong. Generally you try and establish a plan to catch them the next day," he added. Speaking of those who commit petty theft in his shops, Mr Gleeson said:"They can be very aggressive when we try and stop them.
Mr Gleeson said:"Those people don’t hide their identities, they don’t care... the system would describe them as petty criminals but it doesn’t feels like that to us."
