Police arrest Cambourne van driver over suspected clothes haul

Dozens of bags of clothes thought to have been stolen were discovered in the van

Police arrested a man after a white van containing dozens of bags of clothes was seen parked outside clothing donation banks late at night.

Eagle-eyed officers on patrol spotted the vehicle at the recycling point close to Home Bargains in Cambourne, Cambridgeshire, last weekend.

They spoke to the driver who did not have any keys to the banks "but a van full of clothes", police said.

He was arrested at the scene and inquiries continue.

Cambridgeshire Police said people should report any suspicious behaviour around clothing banks, especially outside normal working hours.
