The Night of the Treasure Hunters

It's like one big self-service party. Thousands of people have turned up at Branscombe beach to plunder the washed up goods from the grounded MSC Napoli. The police can only stand by and watch helplessly.

It was Garret Tipping's lucky day. The young man drove down to the beach on Monday after hearing that containers from the grounded MSC Napoli had been washed up on the shore. A few people had managed to open one of the big metal boxes and made off with boxes full of dog food. Dried feed made in England, which had orginally been heading for South Africa. Tipping could use some dog food, so why not head to the beach and see what else was lying around.
