A man was fined for spitting out a leaf after it blew into his mouth in England igniting debate over heavy fines on minor offences, media reports said on Thursday.
Roy Marsh, 86, was hit with a £250 fine after an incident in Skegness, Lincolnshire, earlier this year.
The story emerged after Adrian Findley, a county councillor, said he had received a number of complaints about similar “heavy handed” incidents in the seaside resort.

The original fine was £250, which was later reduced to £150 on appeal.
