Au contraire, Blackadder - the claim is that the guard tried to tell the man to delete the pictures and got mightily cheesed off when he (quite rightly) refused. It is all too common for the uniform to go to someone's head. The guard should have just left it but obviously his ego wasn't about to let him do that. He just had to be the big man and as a result he's set in train a ridiculous series of events.

We have listened to the very public debate surrounding our photography policy and as a result, with immediate effect, are changing the policy to allow family and friends to take photos in the mall.
We will publicise this more clearly in the mall and on our website, and will reserve the right to challenge suspicious behaviour for the safety and enjoyment of our shoppers.
We wish to apologise to Mr White for the distress we may have caused to him and his family and we will be in direct contact with him to apologise properly.
