A man has been arrested after a “chop shop” containing suspected stolen car parts was uncovered in Barnsley.
South Yorkshire Police were tipped off about the site in Barrowfield Road, Thurnscoe, by Barnsley Council neighbourhood wardens, who found it during a routine visit last Wednesday.
During their search of the premises officers discovered two stolen vehicles as well as multiple car parts believed to have been stripped from other stolen cars.
A 41-year-old man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of handling stolen goods and theft of a motor vehicle. He has been bailed while inquiries continue.
