Massive Waste Dump Arrested | Leicester News

Thirty thousand tons of shredded household waste buried at a protected nature site near Shawell has led to a major arrest — and it’s just the tip of the iceberg. A 24-year-old from Leeds, linked to dumping in Wigan too, is now in custody on suspicion of environmental crime, fraud, and money laundering. Three others are also detained as authorities call this organized waste crime — not fly-tipping. The Environment Agency is racing to assess the damage, monitor air and water, and track down everyone involved. If you have info, speak up — justice is coming for those who destroyed these sacred spaces. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
