A PALMISTE man has been arrested after police seized a backhoe which was found with false registration plates during an anti-crime on Thursday.
A police press release said the Port of Spain CID held an exercise in the Central Division, during which it searched the Brasso Road, Palmiste home of a 69-year-old man.
Police found a number of vehicles on the compound which were examined and their chassis numbers found to be intact.
However, a yellow JCB backhoe was found to be bearing false registration plates and it was seized. Police believe the backhoe was stolen.
The exercise was co-ordinated by Snr Supt Sharon Cooper, Supt Smith and ASP Morales. Investigations are ongoing.
The post Palmiste man held, backhoe with false registration seized appeared first on Trinidad and Tobago Newsday.
