Johnson scam goes down the pan
Portsmouth's on-loan England defender Glen Johnson has been fined for stealing bathroom fittings from a hardware store in Kent.
Johnson, on a season-long stay from Chelsea, and Millwall striker Ben May were caught at B&Q in Dartford on Wednesday.
The pair were spotted by a security guard putting a toilet seat into a box with a cheaper price tag before they reached the checkout, according to reports.
They also avoided paying for a set of taps by concealing them underneath a sink at the checkout.
A worker at the store told The Sun: "We all recognised Johnson. No one could quite believe a bloke like him, with all that money, would be moronic enough to nick a toilet seat. But that's what him and May were doing.
"They were spotted by one of our security guards, a chap of 74, and cops arrived as they were trying to leave.
"They seemed to find the whole thing funny and couldn't stop smirking even after they had been arrested."
A Kent Police spokesman said: "Kent Police arrested two 22-year-old men on Wednesday on suspicion of theft in Dartford.
"Both men have been issued with £80 fixed penalty notices."
Gary Double, Portsmouth's director of communications, said: "We won't be making a statement."
A Millwall spokeswoman also refused to comment.
