Crime Ref:

Force:

Wales - North Wales Police

The RSPCA has warned that action will be taken against people who commit wildlife crime after two men were caught illegally digging at an active badger sett near Wrexham.

A member of the public alerted the police after spotting them on land at Cross Lanes on 30 August last year.

One of the men was lying on his stomach in a large rectangular hole which had been dug into a bank.

Two quad bikes - one of which had a box attached with a terrier-type dog called Rosie inside - were also found at the scene.
