has washed up on two beaches in Norfolk. | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
The drugs were found yesterday in holdalls | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
And this morning smaller packages were discovered | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
So far, 360 kilos of cocaine have been found, | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
and investigators say more drugs could be washed ashore. | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
Today police swept the beach looking for more packages that have washed | :00:29. | :00:42. | |
They estimate approximately 360 kilograms of the class A drug | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
were found on the beach in holdalls that were kept afloat | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
The seizure, which if cut and sold on the streets | :00:50. | :00:59. | |
could have a potential value of over ?50 million. | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
The National Crime Agency believe this find will be a major | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
360 kilograms of cocaine is definitely a significant seizure | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
and one that we are quite pleased with, as law enforcement. | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
Obviously it will not make its way onto the streets. | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
But washed up on the beach is very unusual. | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
Still, it is a significant detection. | :01:21. | :01:21. | |
Ryan Barnett worked constructing the sea defences here, | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
and says it is not the first time this has happened. | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
I understand you have found stuff like this? | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
Yeah, there was stuff we found back then, obviously not as much | :01:29. | :01:37. | |
A smaller amount, about ten kilos, I think it was. | :01:38. | :01:48. | |
Tonight, Norfolk Police say they believe all packages have been | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
recovered and they will continue to work with the | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
This evening the police said they will step up | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
On the street cocaine is sold in one gram wraps, | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
so this seizure means over 360,000 wraps have been stopped before | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
Police are to start a major search of a landfill site | :02:03. | :02:12. | |
to try to find the missing airman Corrie McKeague. | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
A thousand square metres of the Milton landfill | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
It will take up to ten weeks to complete. | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
Milton landfill site, not far from Cambridge. | :02:30. | :02:30. | |
It is the focus of the latest phase of the investigation | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
into the missing airman, Corrie McKeague. | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
Police will search 1000 square metres of the site, up to a | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
after Corrie was picked up on CCTV walking into a loading bay behind | :02:43. | :02:51. | |
some shops, a dead end full of bins. | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
Shortly after, a waste lorry was caught on camera making | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
a collection in the same area where Corrie was | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
The lorry itself was forensically tested but | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
Waste from that lorry is still at the side after police told | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
them not to put anything on top of it. | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
Since he went missing in the early hours of the 24th of | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
September, there have already been searches involving hundreds of | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
We have 40 members of the public, I have somewhere | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
round about 60 trained search technicians, team leaders | :03:25. | :03:26. | |
We have 14 four by fours out who will run and ferry the | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
Police say searching the site is the next logical step | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
Corrie's mother, Nicola, told Look East this | :03:36. | :03:43. | |
latest news leave the family with mixed emotions, and while she is | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
pleased searches are taking place, she is terrified and desperate for | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
The lorry driver who died when his truck crashed onto the A12 | :03:50. | :04:02. | |
in Essex from a bridge has been named by his family. | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
30-year-old Gurdip Johal, who lived in Witham, died on Wednesday. | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
His lorry was carrying batteries, and the trailer has now been moved. | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
Greater Anglia has unveiled a plan for a new ?70 | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
It will be built by the rail operator Abellio on a former factory | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
New trains, which will be bought as part of the company's nine-year | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
franchise agreement, will be serviced and repaired there. | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
The firm says it will help them transform train | :04:38. | :04:39. | |
Travellers on the Great Eastern Line out of Liverpool Street have | :04:40. | :04:48. | |
for a decade looked out on a post-industrial wasteland | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
as the train passes over the River Stour estuary to Brantham, | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
It used to be a thriving industrial centre employing thousands. | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
ICI one of the companies that used to operate here. | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
Margaret Roberts, later Margaret Thatcher, was employed | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
as a research chemist at a plastics company close by. | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
Now, 22 acres is earmarked for a state of the art | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
This is an enormous decrepit and decaying site which is crying | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
out for regeneration which many people thought would never happen. | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
And I think the thing that is so important for all of us | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
in the east of England is this is the first step on the road to how | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
this new franchise will regenerate the broader eastern economy. | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
The new depot will have 15 tracks for stabling, | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
cleaning and maintaining a new fleet of trains. | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
It will complement existing ones at Norwich, Clacton and Ilford | :05:35. | :05:36. | |
and include a new lathe, especially useful in the autumn | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
when falling leaves create slippery conditions can | :05:40. | :05:40. | |
Local planners have given permission for 300 new homes nearby, and now | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
This is the largest inward investment since | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
?70 million coming in to a very tricky site | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
Greater Anglia accepts its current service needs improvement. | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
When the service is running reliably then I think it is a good service, | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
but I am absolutely honest when I say there are still too many | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
incidents and that is where the billions that we are putting in, | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
that will reduce these incidents and they will keep | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
The timescale for this project is ambitious - | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
design work is underway now and work proper should start in the summer. | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
The aim is to have it up and running by December 2018. | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
Then it will receive the first of a fleet of new trains to be | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
We have some further showers this evening and overnight and rain, | :06:35. | :06:58. | |
sleet and snow in some snow likely to settle. Temperatures are around | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
minus one Celsius sought some frost in places and also missed the murky. | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
The risk of further win today showers in the morning tomorrow but | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
mostly be turned to rain. Cloudy skies and staying cold. We keep the | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
showers feeding and on those north-easterly winds tomorrow | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
evening. NA moment the National forecast. Sunday is another cloudy | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
Bay and the bitterly the cold easterly wind. We keep the | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
exception to that rule probably over the hills where again there could be | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
a bit of snow, but not accumulating. Another cold | :07:37. | :07:43. | |
However I paint this weekend's picture, I'll need a palette of | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
grey. Thereby a a lot of cloud around but I managed to find some | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
sunshine. I don't know how but there was a couple of hours towards the | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
south-west in Cornwall, a beautiful day. The south-west saw glimpses of | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
sunshine. Further east, cloudy, cold and grey with winds off the North | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
seep and a scattering of wintry showers. Yes, rain sleet and snow, a | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
dusting at lower levels through the day. It brought this beautiful | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
picture on the outskirts of Aberdeenshire. But enough of the | :08:17. | :08:25. | |
sun, let's get back to the nitty gritty and talk about the snow | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
showers that will continue across the eastern half of the UK | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
throughout the night. There will be some significant accumulations | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
higher ground. A dusting at lower levels, and it will 's be cold | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
further north and west, particularly in sheltered Highlands of Scotland, | :08:41. | :08:41. |
