£10,000 Worth of Goods Stolen in Curry Rivel Burglary
A petrol station in Curry Rivel, UK, was robbed by three masked men, resulting in a loss of £3,000.

On January 15th, according to The County Gazette, a petrol station in Curry Rivel village, UK, was burglarized in the early hours of the morning. Three masked men stole items worth approximately £10,000, resulting in a loss of around £3,000. The entire incident was captured clearly on CCTV footage.

 

James Duder, the owner of the gas station, has stated that he plans to enhance security measures in order to prevent such crimes in the future, as this is the third theft that the business has experienced.

 

According to video footage, three thieves arrived at the store in a black Audi with fake license plates at 1:30 am on the 14th. Two individuals were responsible for prying open the store's door, while the other person prepared bags and boxes to hold the stolen items.

 

The stolen items included cigarettes worth £7,500, an e-cigarette worth £1,000, and scratch cards worth £1,000. The police arrived at the scene within 14 minutes of receiving the report, but the thief had already fled in the direction of Taunton.

EU Tobacco Tax Reform Targets November Push as Sweden Holds Nicotine-Pouch Minimum at €20 per Kilogram
EU Tobacco Tax Reform Targets November Push as Sweden Holds Nicotine-Pouch Minimum at €20 per Kilogram
The Irish presidency of the Council of the European Union is using bilateral talks to push the bloc’s Tobacco Taxation Directive toward a political agreement in November. According to Law360, citing an EU official, Sweden is unwilling to accept a minimum excise threshold above €20 per kilogram for nicotine pouches. Council negotiations have already lowered the European Commission’s original proposal, but a May 2026 presidency compromise still set the minimum at 10% of the tax-inclusive retail price or €30 per kilogram in 2028-29, with higher levels later.

JAMA Study: U.S. Vape Directories Fail to Sustainably Curb Unlisted Sales as Product Shifts May Redistribute Brand Share 2Firsts Recommended
A study by CDC Foundation researchers found no sustained decline in e-cigarette sales across Alabama, Oklahoma and Louisiana, the first three U.S. states to implement e-cigarette directory laws. Louisiana initially saw a significant sales decline, followed by a rebound and a persistent reduction in product availability. Sales also shifted from nontobacco-flavored disposables toward prefilled cartridges, with Vuse Alto driving much of the increase in menthol cartridges. By April 2025, unlisted products still accounted for more than half of e-cigarette nicotine sales in all three states.
