| Two men have been arrested in Northumberland following a joint police and RSPCA investigation into badger baiting in the county. Two houses in Cramlington were raided early on Monday and a number of items connected with badger baiting seized. The arrests are part of a six-month operation into badger baiting, which police say is on the increase. The men are being held under the Wildlife and Countryside Act, which outlaws badger baiting.
