Simon Ryan claims a security guard at Whitebirk Aldi humiliated him over a can of red thunder while he was experiencing a diabetic hypo Security staff at an Aldi store have come under fire after a shopper accused a guard of humiliating him while he was experiencing a diabetic hypo. Simon Ryan was shopping in the Aldi store in the Peel Centre at Whitebirk, Blackburn on Thursday last week. Mr Ryan, who has type one diabetes, said as he entered the store he began to feel low and knew his blood sugars had dropped. The 34-year-old from Blackburn said: I rang my partner and she told me to get a can of sugary pop and drink it, put it in my basket, carry on to the till and come home.
