A MAN was arrested on suspicion of fly tipping on Friday.

Police believe the 26-year-old from Redlynch was involved in nine separate offences of illegally dumping waste.

Officers searched his house and seized clothes, a mobile phone and a tablet computer, before taking him to Melksham Police Station, where he was interviewed by council enforcement officers.

He was summoned to court, before being released.

It comes as part of a joint fly-tipping investigation between Wiltshire Council and Wiltshire Police in the south of the county.
