MORE than 40 people have been arrested on the Lancashire-Merseyside border over the last four nights.
Routes were policed from 9pm to 5am by 70 officers from both the Lancashire and Merseyside forces.
A number of stolen cars were recovered.
The operation was a response to the growing amount of crime committed in West Lancashire by people travelling from the Liverpool area.
