Thanet council appeal to identify Athelstan Road flytippers caught on CCTV

Caught in the act on CCTV

Thanet council has put out a photo appeal in a bid to identify two suspected fly tippers.

The authority has published the image of two men emptying the contents of a car, plus a large corner sofa from the vehicle’s roof, on to the roadside in Cliftonville.

One of the council’s CCTV cameras caught the incident, filming the pair over five minutes as large items were dumped on the pavement of Athelstan Road.

The incident took place on Sunday, May 20 at 3.15pm.

Enforcement officers were unable to get to the location before the men disappeared, so now the council is hoping the public can help identify them so they can be prosecuted.

The vehicle was a dark blue Saab, index number CP56 HVC, which is shown as unregistered, and without tax.
