An elderly skin cancer victim was ordered to remove the hood she wore to cover her bandages as she entered a Wirral superstore for some post-Christmas shopping.
Staff at the Asda store in Liscard insisted that great-grandmother Ruth Stoba's headgear had to be removed for "security reasons".
The frail 85-year-old has 19 stitches in her head and wore a long purple padded coat with its hood pulled up because she was self-conscious of her bandages.
"It was obvious that she wasn't a young 'hoodie.' You could tell by her thick glasses, grey hair and walking stick." said her daughter Janet Dellius.
