   A woman was placed in handcuffs by police and fined £100 for feeding   
   pigeons in London.   
      
   Video footage captured by a passerby showed the woman being detained by   
   a group of officers and council enforcement workers in Harrow on   
   Wednesday.   
      
   A notice later handed to the woman showed she had been stopped for   
   breaching a Public Spaces Protection Order which covers town and   
   district centres in Harrow.   
      
   The woman, who was visibly upset at times, was surrounded by at least   
   six police officers and two council enforcement officers.   
      
   The incident unfolded at around 3pm on Wednesday on the High Street in   
   Wealdstone, London.   
      
   Police were seen searching the woman's pockets while a man filming the   
   encounter repeatedly challenged the officers over the stop.   
      
   Her possessions were confiscated and placed in a plastic bag by   
   officers, although they were later returned.   
      
   The woman, who has not been identified, was placed in the back of a   
   police van but was later released.   
      
   She had been handed a note by police which showed she had been detained   
   for feeding the birds. The particulars of the offence were described as   
   "throwing bread on the floor".   
      
   It was claimed the woman had received a warning from enforcement   
   officers "but chose not to comply so police were called".   
      
   The notice added that the woman had been issued with a fixed penalty   
   notice of £100, which she was ordered to pay within 28 days to avoid   
   prosecution.   
      
   "If you fail to make payment within 28 days you may be summons to appear   
   in the Magistrate court," the paper stated.

   With all the problems Britain has with their woke society, they arrest   
   people for being kind to animals?
