A get-tough council has started taking rogue shopping trolleys hostage and holding them to ransom in a bid to clean up the streets.
Supermarkets in Colchester are being warned stray trolleys will be rounded up and kept under lock and key until they pay to get them back.
Stores which refuse to stump up the £35 will still be out of pocket as Colchester Council says it will charge them rent for storage.

Good point .. some supermarkets here have a £1 slot to get a trolley ... every single one of those is returned LOL !
