An eyewitness in Kelty described the scene to The Courier.
“I was sitting in the living room when I saw the first police car pull in across the street from me.
“Then I saw a second car pull in, facing down the same direction, so I went out on the veranda and instantly saw two more vehicles coming from the main street.
“They [police] pulled into my street fast and, before I knew it, there were around 12 vans and cars, mostly armed police.
“The people they were after didn’t put up any fight; they just went willingly.”
