Millions of packets of cigarettes have been washed ashore at a East Devon beach, after a cargo ship lost its load.
14 tonnes of cigarettes have been washed up on a pebble beach in East Devon.
The Maritme and Coastguard Agency says a container ship shed some of its load in heavy seas on Valentine's Day.
One container - packed with about 11 million cigarettes - came ashore at Axmouth near Seaton this weekend. Police say they're not expecting any further containers to land.
Six years ago the MSC Napoli beached at nearby Branscombe, prompting treasure hunters to descend on the village. As in that case, people have been told they'll be commiting a crime if they take goods from the beach.
