Despite all the activity, no blue police tape was to be seen.

Meanwhile, over the brow of a hill further along the street, more officers could be seen. And two white cars, showing clear signs of damage, were parked up.

A police four wheel drive vehicle blocked part of the road, its blue lights flashing. An unmarked, grey police car blocked the other end of the road, at the junction of Bellhouse Road.

Near the site of the apparent police search, life appeared to be going on as normal for residents. The hustle and bustle of children playing in the grounds of the nearby Beck Primary School, directly across the road from the police vehicles, filled the air.
