Police vow to track down the people who helped Dezi Freeman after killer shot dead in early morning raid

In an isolated bush block in the state’s northeast, in a squalid camp with no running water or electricity, cop killer Dezi Freeman’s seven-month life on the run came to an end.

It is unclear how or when the 56-year-old fugitive arrived at the Murray River Road property in Thologolong, where he was shot dead by heavily armed police on Monday morning.

Freeman lived among a cluster of shipping containers and portable buildings in what one local described as a “bullshit pile.”

Aerial footage taken after the siege showed a dilapidated camp spread around three containers, a donga and a broken-down bus, surrounded by plastic tarps, camping chairs and cheap tables.
