A man has been caught by a gang of paedophile hunters who swooped in on him at at a caravan park 'full of children'
The group snared the man who 'hung his head in shame' after finding out he was staying at a caravan park made famous as the Gogglebox filming location of Hull stars Jenny and Lee.
It is alleged the man, believed to be in his thirties, sent sick messages to a "decoy" - one of the paedophile hunters posing as a child online - whom he believed to be a 13-year-old girl, reports The Mirror.

During the sting at Sand le Mere Holiday Village near Tunstall, East Yorkshire, which was streamed live on Facebook on Wednesday night, the man admitted to sending a video of himself performing a sex act to the decoy.
He was also caught on camera admitting sending several indecent images and sending messages of a sexual nature.
He also admitted to having children of his own who had been "taken away" from him five years ago, but did not give the reasons why.
He allegedly opened the chat conversation on Facebook with a message that read "you're fit" on August 8, before moving the conversation across to encrypted messaging app WhatsApp.
The man, who was on holiday with his family at the campsite, allegedly spent several hours at night messaging the girl.
On the live stream, his friends and family members can be heard reacting in shock to the news that he had been messaging an underage girl.
A member of the team can be heard on the video saying: "He's the only person responsible for his actions, none of his family is responsible.
"It's nothing to do with anybody else apart from the predator in front of me."
It is alleged that he regularly attempted to video call the girl up to 20 times in a row.
The justice campaigners say they told the man through the decoy account that the girl he was speaking to was underage, but he continued to message the account for three days.
The man was arrested by police.
