A pub diner was caught on camera putting a shard of glass into her mouth in a bid to claim compensation.
The woman pretended to choke and complained to staff that the glass had been in her food.
But a CCTV camera at the Judge Roy Beans bar in Newbridge, Co Kildare, Ireland, caught her appearing to place the shard in her own mouth.
Pub owner Vivian Carroll told Irish Mirror: "Sadly, this is typical of what I and many other publicans face on a weekly basis.
"It’s clear from the footage that after hiding glass in her clothes, this person then deliberately places it in her mouth. She told a member of staff that the glass was in her food, which was obviously not the case.
"But if it wasn’t for security cameras I could possibly have faced a massive claim."
