Arrests over fraudulent payment
Two men have been arrested in Norfolk after they were caught driving a silver BMW convertible which they bought using a fraudulent bank draft in Devon.

The men are believed to have bought the car in Ivybridge on 26 April. One of the offenders gave the name of "Dominic Larson" and claimed to be Norwegian.

The duo are also suspected of buying a personal watercraft in Paignton on 27 April using another fraudulent draft.

The men are due to be brought back to Devon for questioning.

On the first occasion, the man used an Audi motor car believed to be silver / blue or bronze in colour. He was accompanied by a second person driving a small green car, possibly a Fiat.

On the second occasion, the male offender used a silver Audi A4.

The police said the fraudulent bank drafts used were of a high quality and were supported with other high quality documents including driving licences. Police believe four men were involved in the frauds.

Police are keen to hear from witnesses who may have seen the men in Devon between 25 and 27 April.
