News Article: High Security RAI Alert at Customs

A cancer patient recovering from radiation therapy sparked bomb fears as he drove off a Channel ferry.

Officials checking for radioactive material stopped Peter Davies, 60, after he set off detectors at Dover.

He was allowed through only after he showed a letter detailing the thyroid cancer treatment he'd had a fortnight earlier at St Bart's, London.

Mr Davies, of Witham, Essex, who was returning from France with partner Pauline Marr, said: "It was all good-natured. I know they have to take precautions."
