A man has been fined after he was caught on camera dumping rubbish from his car.
Mohammed Saleem, 41, of Dundee Drive, Blackburn was fined a total of £712.50 (including court costs) following an appearance at Blackburn Magistrates Court on April 27 where he pleaded guilty to the charges.
The offence occurred in the Audley area of Blackburn in November last year when Mr Saleem was caught on CCTV dumping several bags of waste onto a grass verge.
Cllr Jim Smith, Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council’s Executive Member for Environment, said: "The council won’t tolerate fly-tippers and litter louts and this offence has resulted in a large fine for the person involved.
