John Terry's mother arrested
England and Chelsea captain John Terry's mother and mother-in-law were both arrested last week for shoplifting.
Sue Terry, 50, and Sue Poole, 54, were held on suspicion of theft, accused of stealing food and clothing worth £800 from Tesco and Marks and Spencer.
The pair were caught loading the goods into a car at the Brooklands shopping centre in Weybridge.
Security guards called police at 3pm on Wednesday and the women were taken to Staines police station where they accepted a police caution - meaning they formally acknowledged their guilt but that no further action was taken against them.
The incident is hugely embarrassing for the footballer, who earns £135,000 a week and has bought detached homes for both his mother and mother-in-law in the same street in which he also lives.
