A BLONDE bombshell gave police a real eyeful when she was caught on camera wearing nothing but a pair of shoes.

Posing on Redcar sea front for what appeared to be a men's magazine photo shoot, the woman not only turned a few heads in the town, but caught the eye of CCTV cameras.

Council officials could hardly believe their eyes believe their eyes as they watched the model, accompanied by another woman with a camera, parading along the windy esplanade on Tuesday.

Cleveland Police were informed and arrived at about 5.10pm outside the town's Woolworths store.

By that time, the shivering model had pulled on a coat. Both women, from Lancashire, were cautioned for outraging public decency and released.

None of the shoppers The Northern Echo spoke to in Redcar last night said they had seen the display.

Builder Mark Bailey, 20, said: "If I had known about that, I would have been there, helping the girls point the camera.

"It's not every day you see a naked woman walking around the town centre - especially at this time of the year. Scenes like that are few and far between, I'm just sorry I missed it."

Shop assistant Karen Shuttleworth, 28, said: "I usually finish work at that time, and if I came across that scene I would have been quite offended.

"You don't expect to see a naked woman as you're leaving work."

Councillor Joyce Benbow, of Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council, said: "This incident was a first for Redcar, but hopefully the last.

"We picked up this incident on our CCTV cameras and notified the police.

"As a direct result of our footage, these two women were cautioned."

Police confirmed there was just one complaint over Tuesday evening's town centre photo shoot.

A spokesman said: "There are warmer places for a photo shoot rather than close to the North Sea in March.''
