A police force has launched an internal investigation into officers accepting free teas and coffees while on duty.
Cheshire Police says that the inquiries are centring on a motorway service station which is believed to give out free drinks to officers.
Accepting “hospitality” goes against force policy, a spokesman said.
The investigation has been criticised by an officer who runs the Victims of Crime Trust, saying the accepting cups of tea is “good community policing”.

Police officers are being offered “tea stops” at 12 Co-operative stores across Conwy and Denbighshire.
The idea is that the North Wales Police will be offered a hot drink whilst mingling with shoppers and staff.
Rose Humphreys manager of the Co-op in Rhos on Sea, said it got police officers out of their cars and in contact with the public.
