A truck which was wanted for fly-tipping was seized by police.

The vehicle was stopped by police as the driver was reportedly not wearing a seatbelt.

Checks on the vehicle revealed the truck was wanted by Dorset Council Waste Services for fly-tipping, and suspected to be involved in other offences.

The truck was then seized by police and taken away.

A spokesperson for Dorset Police Rural Crime Team said: "The eagle eyes of a patrol officer spotted this transit tipper as the driver was not wearing a seat belt."

"Checks on the vehicle revealed it was wanted by CountryWatch partner Dorset Council Waste Services for fly-tipping, and suspected to be involved in other offences.

"The Rural Crime Team have attended and the vehicle has been seized.

"The occupants of the vehicle were not best pleased. If you don't want your vehicle seized, don't commit rural crime in Dorset."
