A sneaky seagull has turned
shoplifter by wandering into a
store and helping himself to
his favourite crisps.

The fearless bird lies in wait
every day and pounces at a
corner shop in Aberdeen when
the door opens.

He sneaks in, grabs his spicy
Doritos, then flies off with
them in his beak and shares
them with other birds.

The seagull, nicknamed Sam by
staff and customers, has
become so popular locals have
started paying for his crisps.

Shop worker Sriaram Nagarajan,
22, said: 'Everyone is amazed
by the seagull.

'For some reason he only takes
that one particular kind of
crisps, nothing else will do
for him. But he's got it down
to a fine art. He waits until
there are no customers around
and I'm standing behind the
till, then he raids the
place.'

Bosses at the RS McColl shop
have now decided to keep the
door closed to try to deter
Sam.

But customers have taken pity
on the bird and have started
donating money to keep him in
Doritos.

Sriaram added: 'He's becoming
a bit of a celebrity. Seagulls
are usually not that popular
but Sam is a star because he's
so funny.'
