colleague as well has identified - 349 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,840 he's located phones, bank cards, 350 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,920 two wraps with individual cannabis nuggets in 351 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,040 and, clearly, a large quantity of cash. 352 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:44,720 All of this will be sent off, 353 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,800 and it builds a picture of what has been going on in this address. 354 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,360 The picture painted of goings-on behind the PVC door 355 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:53,880 was not a pretty one, 356 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,200 and the suspect inside is currently on bail 357 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:02,560 after being charged with conspiracy to supply class A and class B drugs. 358 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,080 He awaits his day in court. 359 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,480 These warrants are crucial in keeping people safe, 360 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,520 and disruption... disrupting criminal activity. 361 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,760 Still to come, 362 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,400 tooled up and looking sharp in Wellingborough. 363 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,000 Nasty looking machete. 364 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,520 And Rob... 365 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:38,040 ..fails to see eye-to-eye with a suspected drink driver. 366 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,320 You are clearly intoxicated or under the influence of something, 367 00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:43,680 because of the fact that you can't keep your eyes open. 368 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,760 MAN: We've got a confirmed cannabis grow here. 369 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,240 Property has been broken into. 370 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,960 JOHN THOMSON: You just can't trust drug dealers. 371 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,840 Even if you're one yourself, 372 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,320 they'll break in and rob your crop like common criminals. 373 00:22:13,360 --> 00:22:16,760 Whoever it was have just harvested after forcing entry, 374 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,120 so there's no plants here. 375 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,120 It's just all the apparatus and the... what was here. 376 00:22:24,360 --> 00:22:27,640 But cops are cracking down on this gang-on-gang crime. 377 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,200 And Max Smith is after a van that may be involved. 378 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,520 It's just pinged an ANPR camera nearby. 379 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,000 We've just been in our briefing for the morning 380 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,840 and a van's just activated which is of interest to us, 381 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:49,880 which is linked to several burglaries of cannabis farms 382 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,920 where I believe harm has clearly been done to people 383 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,600 in those... cannabis factories, 384 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,360 and the people are outstanding for.... 385 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,120 it's been linked for intelligence along with another vehicle. 386 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,640 That other vehicle is a VW Passat. 387 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,120 And while other units hunt the Volkswagen... 388 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,600 ..Max only has eyes for the van. 389 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,480 So it's hit a camera the other side of town, 390 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,920 but they've sort of said it's got links 391 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,720 to pretty much everywhere around Wellingborough. 392 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,640 One of the most valuable bits of kit in an interceptor's armoury... 393 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,080 We're just gonna, erm, 394 00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:35,200 have a drive around, really, see if we can spot it. 395 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,000 ..is a copper's nose, and Max follows his... 396 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,760 ..straight to the target van. 397 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,080 Romeo-Papa-one-four. 398 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,680 RADIO: Go on. 399 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,120 Bravo-delta-five-seven. 400 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,880 It's parked up in Duncan Court car park. 401 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,160 Erm, it's not got any windows at the rear of it, though, 402 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,280 behind the driver, but it's definitely the same reg. 403 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,280 It looks like the van's empty, 404 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:09,320 but Max doesn't want to spook any potential suspects nearby, 405 00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:11,360 so moves out of sight. 406 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,200 With a drone ready to lift off 407 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,840 and monitor potential raids from above, 408 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,840 Max prepares for the ground assault. 409 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,640 Erm, put the car out the way. 410 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,680 I'm gonna get a stinger site just set up just to... 411 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,960 Max is a sharp operator, with every skill in the book, 412 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,040 including a knack with that tyre-shredding bed of nails 413 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:40,400 called stinger. 414 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,680 And if the van heads this way... 415 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,600 there'll be a spiky surprise waiting. 416 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,160 I'm gonna put the stinger on the opp... 417 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,920 on the opposing side of the carriageway, 418 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,760 utilise the wall here as hard cover. 419 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,240 Hopefully, if the plan goes, 420 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,680 we've got another stinger site set up further down the road, 421 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,640 so if it comes out of the car park and turns right, 422 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,120 it'll meet one of my colleagues. 423 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,480 If he comes this way, 424 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,120 hopefully without him seeing me first, 425 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,880 we'll be able to pre-emptively sting it, 426 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,560 and then we've got TPAC resources just round the corner, 427 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,120 so as soon as the vehicle's stung, I can move in and box it. 428 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,760 The van will be outmanoeuvred at every turn, 429 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,680 but as Max lays the spikes, 430 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,920 word comes in the suspects could be in the white Passat, 431 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,160 which handily is headed this way. 432 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,600 Max takes cover. 433 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:41,920 Just in time. 434 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,480 But he can't be sure if he's been clocked. 435 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,840 So, the CC which has gone past, 436 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,480 which is the other vehicle linked to this 437 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,000 which may be carrying the people that are doing the jobs, 438 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,960 may or may not have seen us, I don't know. 439 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,600 And then it's sort of behind us right now. 440 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,240 A few streets away... 441 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,440 Five interceptor units 442 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,200 now have the Passat in their crosshairs. 443 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,160 They aren't certain the occupants are their target, 444 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,400 but the car's got intelligence on it... 445 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,320 Move up, move up, move up. 446 00:26:18,360 --> 00:26:20,240 ..and needs stopping. 447 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,560 Take it off!
