Employees at the Central Store in Wyke Regis, Dorset England has been a regular customer for six years entering the store and helping himself to bags of chips without paying for it. The seagull has been named Steven Seagull after the action adventure actor has stolen around 30 bags of chips in the last two months which has caused the employees headaches since they have told their customers to keep the doors closed so that the seagull out of the store. It is odd for a seagull to enter a store just to steal bags of chips for a meal. Link is upi.com/1091722273494 via @upi

No since this story came from England the other one was probably from Alaska or another state.

Yes, why only humans have fun buying it, when they can just land, go to the store and get it .... and whats with all these going to sea ... Yes... they are also technically upgrading

I am in agreement with you that seagulls like bears who are known for stealing food inside of houses are thieves.

Well, first of all I hope he's eating the chips without the bag, Second if this keep happening why can't the store put out some nice fish for him by the store knowing he comes to get food, I mean there are alternatives, I for one would keep a large bowl of water outside with fishes in there,

That is a good question why the owners of the store have not taken up your suggestions.

I will do my best to enjoy my Sunday. It is funny that a seagull is known for stealing food in a store in England since I have done stories of bears entering houses to eat food.

The seagull must have a craving for chips.

Just like bears have a craving for cakes inside of a home.

The seagull has learnt how to get himself a free meal.

I guess seagulls like bears know how to steal food inside of stores and houses.

If that 30 bags is the seagull's normal take for two months, that would be a lot over 6 years. Maybe the shop should just buy a cat, and employ that as its security guard, standing by the door, to scare this crook away.

That would be a good idea for the store owner to hire help to keep seagulls away.
