Note the misspelling here, but at least it's just in the weblink
Anyway, must be slow news day/policing day up in Cumbria Crack land, or maybe there's more to this than meets the eye. (I mean, it's not as if there's nothing else in the news at the moment
)Looks like a run of around 50 miles, though, which might help explain things...
