Massive search operation for cop killer Desi Freeman

A major five-day police operation involving over 100 officers and volunteers is underway in Victoria's Mount Buffalo National Park area, searching for fugitive Desi Freeman, who killed two police officers and wounded another five months ago. The search, based on intelligence about a gunshot heard an hour after the original fatal shooting, includes specialist search and rescue teams, a drone unit and a cadaver dog. Separately, emergency crews are resuming the search for a missing male swimmer in his 30s at South Maroubra Beach in Sydney, where difficult weather conditions are hampering rescue efforts.
