Tax fraud officers swoop on car park

A man was arrested after tax fraud investigators visited a car park on the outskirts of a city centre.

Officers from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) were seen at Armer Parking’s site in Spence Lane in Leeds yesterday morning.

The manned car park charges £6 per day or £100 per month and runs a shuttle bus service. An HMRC spokesman confirmed its officers had been working in the Leeds area, and one man was arrested on suspicion of tax fraud.
