A man has been arrested after a 'chop shop' was discovered in a unit at a business park.

Police were made aware of suspicious activity at a premises in Snetterton Business Park and found four stolen cars and other car parts which are also thought to be stolen.

It is believed the unit was being used as a 'chop shop' - where vehicles are illegally dismantled or "chopped up" for parts and sold for a profit.

Officers spent five days dismantling the site following the discovery on October 31 and enquiries are under way to get the vehicles, which were stolen in London, back to their owners.
