Three men have been arrested after officers seized five vehicles during warrants this morning (October 10).

UPDATE: The three men have since been released on bail.

"Thousands of pounds" worth of suspected stolen cars were recovered by Wiltshire Police.

Two warrants were executed at addresses in Winterslow and Amesbury following a public tip-off.

During the warrants, five vehicles were recovered including a Range Rover Sport and a BMW.

Two men aged 27, and one man aged 56, have been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to steal motor vehicles and all three remain in Melksham custody for questioning.

Inspector Tina Osborn hopes the swift action will provide "reassurance to the victims that we will work tirelessly to identify those responsible and locate the vehicles stolen".

She added: “These two early morning warrants were executed by neighbourhood officers following information received from the public.

"We acted quickly after receiving this information and during this significant operation, which saw us working alongside specialist ops and partner agencies including Datatag, have recovered five high value vehicles, and made three arrests which is excellent work.

The Criminal Investigation Department will progress further enquiries in relation to the thefts.
