Gary North, who lives nearby, said: "It was a bit worrying really. | |
"For a start we didn't know how big it was. | |
"Apart from it being lots of police you expect them to be done in half an hour - but for them to be around for so long you really worry about what has gone on." | |

Post-mortem examinations are due to take place later. |
