A sniffer dog discovered illegal tobacco worth 2-thousand-pounds in a raid on Monday.
The dog, whose name is Pheobe, helped officers from trading standards find 260 packets of cigarettes and 103 pouches of loose tobacco in a Crawley business.
The seized tobacco had probably been smuggled into the UK to avoid taxes.
A man’s been airlifted to hospital with serious injuries following a multi-vehicle collision on the M25 this morning (September 9).
The incident, which involved several vehicles, including a lorry and Toyota Yaris, occurred between junctions 9 (Leatherhead) and 8 (Reigate) around 8.10am.
A man in his 30s who was driving the Yaris was airlifted to Hospital after being cut free by fire crews.
It’s not believed that anyone else was seriously injured as a result of the collision.
The clockwise carriageway has now been reopened but the anti-clockwise carriageway still remains closed in the vicinity while emergency crews continue to deal with the incident.
