Rumours that a child had been snatched from a Burnham-On-Sea supermarket on Tuesday evening (August 5th) have been rejected by police.
Officers were called to Morrisons in Pier Street when the initial reports came in.
However, a Burnham police spokesman told Burnham-On-Sea.com that no child had been snatched.
“It was a ‘domestic matter’ that was quickly resolved,” he said after rumours quickly spread about an ‘abduction’ on Facebook.
