Dog sniffs out illegal vapes and cigarettes in cars

A sniffer dog has found hundreds of illegal vapes, cigarettes and pouches of tobacco stashed in cars.
It followed a raid by Bedfordshire Police, HMRC and Luton Borough Council trading standards on a shop in Dunstable on Wednesday.
At a nearby supermarket car park, 109 illegal vapes, 401 packets of illicit cigarettes and 57 pouches of counterfeit tobacco were found in a blue Ford Fiesta thanks to a tobacco dog from Wagtails UK.
A follow-up search of a silver Ford Fiesta at the rear of the raided shop uncovered 191 illegal vapes.

HMRC officers seized all the items and the vehicle in the car park, police said.
