A smoker has been landed with a £400 bill for dropping a cigarette in a supermarket car park.
Daniel Hake, 38, was seen littering the fag butt by council enforcement officers at Tesco in Honeywood Parkway, Dover.
The 38-year-old, of The Street, Preston, did not pay the £75 fine and the case was brought before Canterbury magistrates.
He did not appear in court but was found guilty in his absence on November 26.
Magistrates fined him £220 and ordered him to pay £150 costs and a £30 victim surcharge.
