United Kingdom -- An ice cream man has been caught selling beer from his van outside a school.
Steve Harrison, 49, was caught when he sold four cans of Carling lager from his Signor Rossi ice cream van to Trading Standards officers in a "sting" operation.
Officers discovered a further 163 cans of lager stored in the vehicle which was parked outside Bishop Hedley RC School in Penydarren, Merthyr Tydfil.
The ice cream vendor, who pleaded guilty to two offences under the Licensing Act 2003 at Merthyr Magistrates' Court last month, has been given a criminal anti-social behaviour order. It bans him from selling alcohol from any vehicle which sells food and drink, in the town, for 10 years.
Harrison, of Heol y Mair, Penrhys, Ferndale, was also fined £30 and ordered to pay costs. Merthyr Magistrate's Court heard undercover officers from Trading Standards carried out the sting last October following complaints from the public.
