This is the moment a stowaway was caught on camera jumping out of a lorry in Braintree before fleeing.
Moments after the suspected illegal immigrant leapt to freedom at traffic lights in Millennium Way, three more people emerged at a company’s depot.
The first escape was captured on a motorist’s dashcam.
The driver, who did not want to be named, said: “I wasn’t that surprised because I have seen it happen before, but it is unbelievable really.
“They just have a cheek, he’s probably already got a job at a car wash somewhere.
“I called the police, but I don’t know what they’ll be able to do.”
On the video, the suspected illegal immigrant is seen emerging from the right-hand side curtain and then walking to the pavement.
He then dashes away as the camera car pulls closer.
