Victoria Police are encouraging the local Alpine community to come forward and have their questions and concerns heard regarding the ongoing manhunt for Dezi Freeman. A Victoria Police spokesperson said an information caravan has been set up in Bright, outside the church on Ireland Street and will be manned by police during the day, every day. “Locals and people within the community are encouraged to drop by and have a chat,” they said. “We want to encourage the community to come forward and share any information they have. “It is also a place they can speak to police about any concerns.” The mass search went into a seventh day as police look to hunt down the suspected killer of officers Detective Leading Senior Constable Neal Thompson and Senior Constable Vadim De Waart as they went to execute a warrant of Freeman’s Rayner Track property last Tuesday morning. Police moved their HQ for around 450 Victoria Police officers from the Feathertop Winery at Porepunkah to the DEECA site at Ovens over the weekend. Officers searched properties in Bright and Myrtleford over the weekend, which led to the arrest of a 61-year-old Bright man who was charged with weapon and drug possession. The alleged gunman’s wife, Amalia Freeman, broke her silence on Sunday after she was arrested and released with her son on Thursday night. Ms Freeman urged her husband to give himself up and surrender.
