A police officer has been dismissed for "gross misconduct" after taking a bike belonging to a vulnerable man.
The bike, worth an estimated £500, was found at the officer's home. Police Ombudsman Marie Anderson said the officer "had taken advantage of the man's vulnerabilities and seized an opportunity to take the bike for his personal use".
An investigation by her office found the officer had been working a night shift when he took the bike from storage at the local police station, placed it in his car and took it home.
