Detective Superintendent Phil Key issued the following statement: “First and foremost, I would like to offer my most sincere condolences to the family during this extremely trying time.” We have taken this course of action to ensure the safety of those members of the public who live and work in the area that is affected by the incident. A Section 60 authority has been set up, and it will remain in effect for the next 24 hours, coming to an end at 8:26 p.m. today evening.
He proceeded by saying, “We understand that the use of a Section 60 can cause concern to local residents; however, we only use these powers when they are necessary and fair.”
Because protecting the public’s safety is our top priority, we will be enforcing Section 60 in the surrounding region in an effort to reduce instances of aggressive conduct and forestall the occurrence of any such serious occurrences in the future.
