Non-smoking grandad fined £50 for cig butt stuck to shoe

A NON-SMOKER was hit with a £50 fine for dropping a cigarette butt — after it got stuck to his shoe.

Grandad Ken Morris, 72, was walking through a town centre when he accidentally stepped on the discarded cigarette end.

A council officer spotted him picking off the dog-end and throwing it to the ground as he got into his car.
