"Please Mister Postman, look and see, is there a letter, a letter for me...?"

A 44-year-old woman is wanted by police after allegedly stealing a lot of alcohol from Morrisons in Swindon and pulling out a weapon which she threatened to use on a member of staff.

Almost certainly a known alcoholic & persistent shoplifter, the brave boys in blue will have her in clink in no time. Right?

Wiltshire Police wrote to Melanie at her last known address to give her the option to hand herself in before they put her photo out on social media but have not heard back.

*speechless*

Luckily, the comment section went to town for me:

If you see Melanie, do not approach her but call police on 999 with her exact location, direction of travel and description of clothing and any items she is carrying, referencing the Wanted This Winter campaign.

Anything else you'd like? Her inside leg measurement, perhaps? Her holiday plans?
