A disabled man was targeted by a group of youths in a Yorkshire Asda and now says he wears a body camera at all times for protection.

Nathan Smiddy was followed into Redcar ‘s Asda supermarket where teenagers shouted abuse and falsely called him a paedophile. The 29-year-old who has learning difficulties, autism and dyspraxia, says he fears the malicious accusations could lead to him or other being attacked if the verbal abuse continues.
