Supermarkets have enacted changes to ensure staff safety and customer comfort during the Covid-19 Alert Level 4 lockdown.
Senior Sergeant Craig Dinnissen said the 32-year-old’s behaviour at Pak'N Save yesterday was “unacceptable” and put other people’s health at risk, as well as causing stress and anxiety.
The woman also filmed supermarket staff before leaving in a vehicle.
Mr Dinnissen said the woman was later stopped by police on the Northern Motorway, issued with a trespass notice and given a warning for disorderly behaviour.
