A man has been arrested after police stopped a suspicious car and found about £50,000 worth of suspected stolen goods in the boot.

Officers on patrol in Gravesend pulled over the silver vehicle at the Cobham Services on the A2 on Friday afternoon.

It was searched and mobile phones and other electrical items which were suspected to have been stolen were seized as part of an ongoing investigation.

The force tweeted that the goods were thought to be worth about £50,000.

A 27-year-old from Leicestershire was arrested on suspicion of handling stolen goods.

He has since been bailed pending further inquiries.
