Tescos forced to apologise for "sick" photo

Apparently a Tesco store in Bristol has had to apologise for a photo which pictured a Tesco's worker lying on the ground smiling at the site of a serious accident outside their store.

In the image (right) the Tesco worker is grinning inanely whilst holding a bar code reader and in front of her is the pool of blood belonging to a customer who slipped on pebbles, fracturing her left eye socket, and suffering injuries which have effectively caused a disability on her left side.

Apparently the picture was taken (and used) as part of Tesco's failed compensation claim in court. Tesco apologised saying
"the smile was inappropriate".

That is bizarre and disgusting. They may need a photo of the scene by why have someone in it?
