Life imitating Art

I got a press release this morning from the Hampshire Constabulary

Operation Basking:

Eight arrested in Liverpool in connection with Hampshire lorry hijack

A total of eight people have been arrested by detectives investigating the kidnap of a French lorry driver and his consignment of brandy in November 2005.

The arrests follow a lengthy investigation by the SOCU, formerly the Force Crime Unit, into the kidnap of the driver and the theft of a lorry-load of brandy at Sutton Scotney on November 29, 2005.

I found it kind of ironic, considering a lorry hijack forms a major part of the Bootleg Boys story.
