Three people arrested following Wiltshire Farm foods leaflet scam

Wiltshire Police have arrested three people in connection with a fake leaflet scam.

Two men, described as Eastern European, were seen delivering fake leaflets in the name of Wiltshire Farm Foods to the Downton and Redlynch areas.

Police were made aware of the incident a couple of days ago and were asking the public to report it to 101, if they spotted the pair.
