A Waiter was suspended for taking a selfie with Robin van Persie

A waiter in Barbados has been suspended from his job for two weeks for taking a pictures with footballer Robin van Persie.

Kyson Forde was working at celebrity hangout The Cliff Restaurant on the Caribbean island when he spied his Manchester United hero and asked for a photo.

While van Persie happily agreed, Forde has since been suspended for two weeks for using his mobile phone in the dining area.

A fellow worker was also given the harsh punishment for snapping the picture of the footballer and his waiter.

Striker van Persie was in Barbados for a week-long holiday with his wife Bouchra and two children, Shaqueel, eight, and Dina, five.
