Man arrested during Mid Sussex day of action

A man was arrested and 31 vehicles were checked for potential offences during a day of action involving the police in Mid Sussex last month.

A total of 22 neighbourhood police officers got together with colleagues from West Sussex Trading Standards as part of the national Rogue Traders Week on Thursday April 25.

The day involved police and trading standard officers calling on 25 households across Mid Sussex to give advice about how rogue traders operate and what you can do in order to avoid being ripped off.
