Overview

• Tactical officers surrounded a Standish Street house in Myrtleford and detained a hooded man during a firearm-prohibition order search, with police later stating no arrests were made.
• The search enters its fourth week with no confirmed sightings since Freeman allegedly killed two officers near Porepunkah on August 26.
• Victoria Police are offering a $1 million reward for information leading to Freeman’s capture, the largest in the state’s history.
• Police say they cannot rule out that Freeman remains in the area, is being harboured, or may be dead, and they continue to urge the public not to approach him.
• More than 100 properties have been searched and over 1,100 tips assessed as ADF assets and specialist teams comb rugged bushland, caves and mine shafts.
