0:00:04.600 --> 0:00:07.160
<v S1>Catherine MacLeod for CSI Melbourne. What do you got, Catherine?

0:00:07.760 --> 0:00:11.119
<v S3>Morning, guys. Uh, so we have arrested a man and

0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:15.680
<v S3>located cash and weapons in Flemington. Last night, officers responded

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:19.120
<v S3>to several reports of a Subaru WRX being driven on

0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:23.240
<v S3>its rims. Police attended and that driver tried to flee

0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:26.920
<v S3>in the car, crashing into several parked cars in the process.

0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:30.480
<v S3>A Taser was deployed and that man was taken into custody,

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:34.640
<v S3>but when officers searched him and the car, they located cash, drugs,

0:00:34.680 --> 0:00:38.080
<v S3>a jerry can, a baton, a Taser and OC spray.

0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:41.360
<v S3>That 31 year old will be interviewed later this morning.

0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:44.600
<v S1>Okay. The important part of that story is the very

0:00:44.600 --> 0:00:47.440
<v S1>last line. Um, it's not believed to be linked to

0:00:47.479 --> 0:00:51.360
<v S1>Operation Eclipse. Okay. Correct. So that's good. Given that we've

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:53.880
<v S1>just been informed that there is a fire in a

0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:56.240
<v S1>shop in Edward Street Reservoir.
