Did you miss the original post? The OP was reported to the police by the 'victim' of the crime.

So what ..the police investigated and they were cleared from their enquiries. The OP was merely suspected, the OP was never accused.

Interestingly, no sign of Morrisons themselves on this thread in an official capacity.

What does Morrison's customer relations department consist of? An unmonitored answering machine and an email address maybe?

The OP should never have been a suspect.

The OP was accused as his/her details were passed to the Police.

Keep up.

Incorrect Sooler, the OP was suspected of the crime, was then accused, hence the police visit, but was not charged.

The licence plate details were passed to the police.

I assume the police would think that whoever was driving the car at the time of the "incident" might have been the suspect, not necessarily the OP.

It is important to differentiate between a defendant and a suspect. A suspect is generally a term that is used by law enforcement. It refers to a person who is believed to have done wrong. This individual has likely not been formally charged. He is merely a subject of suspicion.

When a person is a defendant, suspicion has been taken to the next level. This means that some party has made a formal accusation of wrongdoing against another. As a result, legal action is in the process. There must be a court case in order for there to be a defendant.
