A police force which followed a father-of-two in a helicopter after he took some kindling from a nature reserve has been criticised for wasting public money.

Gareth Pope was suspected of theft so officers scrambled the force chopper – at £1,000 pounds an hour – to track him down and follow him back to his home.
