It's PC gone mad.
"Police chiefs will spend �15,000 creating "ethnically diverse" mascots after an officer criticised a model for being too male and white.
The uniformed mascot, known as PCSO Steve, was created by the Metropolitan Police to visit primary schools.
But one of the force's sergeants criticised the character for failing to represent the capital's communities.
He said the figure, white with blue eyes and blond hair, risks leaving Asian and women officers "isolated".
