Lorry driver helps suspected migrants leave back of truck
New video has been released showing a Spanish lorry driver apparently helping migrants or refugees from the back of his truck at the Dartford Crossing in Kent. It was taken by another driver travelling on the M25 who was stunned by what he saw. He called the police but by the time they got there there was no trace of the driver or his human cargo. The trucker's employers have since told us he was unaware anyone was in the back of the lorry until he heard noises. Nashreen Issa reports.
Amazing video: lorry driver helps suspected migrants out of lorry on M25
Five suspected migrants have been filmed exiting a lorry in Dartford on the M25.
The video shows the driver ushering people out. The Spanish company which owns the truck says their driver was alerted by other cars, after they heard noise coming from inside. This comes as another four migrants were found in Canterbury earlier that morning and handed to the Home Office.
