Migrant lorry find 'could have been terrible' say police

Fifteen people have been taken to hospital after being found in the back of a freezer lorry at a motorway service station in Surrey.

The lorry had come from the Netherlands and those found in it were thought to be from from Iraq, Iran and Syria.

Inspector Alan Nicholls from the Surrey and Sussex Roads Policing Unit said they received a phone call on Friday morning.
