More as we get it.

The helicopter was also scrambled late last night to help search for a missing Chatham man.

The National Police Air Service helicopter was used shortly before 11.30pm in the Borstal and Rochester areas to help locate a 23-year-old man reported missing from his home in Chatham.

A police spokesman said the man was later found safe and well in the Higham area.
