flag Police end 5-day search for Dezi Freeman, suspect in August officer killings, without finding him.

Police have concluded a five-day search of Mount Buffalo National Park in Victoria without finding Dezi Freeman, a suspect in the August 26 shooting that killed two police officers and injured a third. Freeman, also known as Desmond Filby, fled after allegedly opening fire during a sex offense-related warrant service at a Reyner Track property. Over 400 officers, including specialized units and NSW cadaver dogs, searched dense bushland and caves, reviewing 1,950 intelligence items but found no trace. A $1 million reward remains active, and authorities continue to urge the public to report any information, emphasizing the ongoing investigation and emotional toll on the community.
