Case against three men, accused of taking tomatoes and Mr Kipling cakes from a skip, is dropped
This case has been reviewed by a senior lawyer and it has been decided that a prosecution is not required in the public interest.
While the decision to charge was taken by the Metropolitan Police Service, a subsequent review of the case by the CPS did not give due weight to the public interest factors tending against prosecution.
We have notified the legal representatives of the defendants that the proceedings will be discontinued.
This decision has been taken on public interest grounds alone.
There was sufficient evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction when the Metropolitan Police decided to charge the defendants and that remains the case.

Men charged with taking food from an Iceland skip
Three men have been charged with taking food - including tomatoes, mushrooms, cheese and Mr Kipling cakes - from a skip behind a branch of Iceland in Kentish Town.
In a statement, Iceland said:
"The store in question is next door to a police station. Iceland staff did not call the police, who attended on their own initiative. Nor did we instigate the resulting prosecution, of which we had no knowledge until the media reports of it appeared yesterday evening.
"We are currently trying to find out from the Crown Prosecution Service why they believe that it is in the public interest to pursue a case against these three individuals, and will comment further when we are more fully informed."
