Naden Arrest

Post by Garry » Thu Mar 22, 2012 11:47 am

last night police captured Naden, who has been on the run for 7 years. 469.000 became active at approx 8pm with choppers, SPSU and other specialist groups. For scanner users the channel was encrypted, but I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time and was able to hear it all unfold via a police portable

he was caught in a house near Gloucester, the house was one of many that police had set up with sensors,

Taken to Taree where a large media circus is building, heavily armed police at court house, police station and patrolling the streets. Heavily armed specialist from Corrective Services also at court house

PORS units patrolling streets.

The joyful mood in the town is being displayed as cars drive by shouting "they got him" "well done" "never let him go"etc etc
