The Jewish barber whose shop was ransacked by rioters last week has cut the hair one of his footballing heroes.

Aaron Biber trimmed Tottenham striker Peter Crouch's hair yesterday and according to the footballer, "did a great job".

Mr Biber, 89, arrived at the shop he has run for more than four decades in the aftermath of the riots and discovered glass smashed and his property – including his kettle - missing.

An appeal organised by interns at the advertising firm BBH has so far raised £35,000 to keep Mr Biber cutting.
