On Tuesday, January 12, the shopper was reportedly stopped by a security guard at Bracknell Morrisons. Although the resident is exempt from wearing a face mask due to his asthma and poor mental health, the guard challenged him for not wearing one. Solicitors Leigh Day, who are representing the disabled man, said he explained why he doesn t have to wear a mask to the security guard and tried to show the guard screenshots of the legislation on his phone.
