Dezi Bird Freeman, the 56-year-old suspected gunman in the Porepunkah shooting, is at the centre of Victoria’s largest manhunt.
The 56-year-old self-described “sovereign citizen” is accused of killing two police officers in the Alpine region at a rural Porepunkah property on Tuesday morning. A team of 10 police officers, including members of the sexual offences and child investigation team, arrived at a property in Porepunkah, about 300km (186 miles) northeast of the city of Melbourne, to execute a search warrant.
