POLICE have arrested two people in Lichfield following reports of fake charity collections. 

The pair were held on Bore Street yesterday (26th June) over concerns relating to claims they were working on behalf of a charity for disabled people. 

A 23-year-old woman from Leicester and a 17-year-old girl from Essex were arrested on suspicion of fraud by false representation and obstructing or resisting a constable in execution of duty. 

A Staffordshire Police spokesperson said:

> “They have been questioned in custody and bailed with conditions while our enquiries continue.  
>  
> “We’re regularly patrolling the city centre on a proactive basis in order to tackle the issues that matter most to local people and businesses. “
