BBC catches up with tyre dumper

ERJ staff report (DS)

London - Last night, the UK's national TV company - the highly respected BBC -- broadcast a programme on illegal tyre dumping in the UK and Ireland.

The BBC Panorama's Raphael Rowe travelled to Majorca to track down Steven and Amy Marlow, a couple who fled the UK after illegally dumping more than 25,000 used tyres on a farm in north Wales

Marlow, a would-be musician, had changed his name to Stevie Reye and was singing in a band. He declined to comment on the tyres left at the farm property in Wales that the landowner and the taxpayer eventually had to pay to have cleared and safely disposed of.
