I'm not going to spam every pic today unless it's of particular interest, but this tweet does show a "Forensic Identification Services" van back on the scene today.

Day five is gearing up. I'm not sure if this pic implies they keep a cruiser at the scene overnight?

I understand drums of hazardous materials discovered on scene will be removed for examination. Also, North Dumfries fire now here. 2/2 #kw

Fire crews would probably be the guys going down a hole, no? They are trained for that type of extrication?

Wow, some serious bucks being spent on this latest search. 5 days and now the OPP UCRT convoy rolls in. Something else has been found on that property IMO

From hopingforjustice's posted tweet above:

WOW. They are throwing a LOT of resources at this.

BBM - Jet Fuel?

The USAR (Urban Search and Rescue) CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear) Response Team (U.C.R.T.) is a unit of highly trained specialists created to deal with the potential of new and emergering threats of terrorism. Following the attacks on the United States of America on September 11, 2001, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) conducted an analysis resulting in the creation of PERT. In Feb 2010 after a formal in depth review, Commissioners' Committee approved changes to the PERT mandate including a name change.. U.C.R.T. The new mandate continues to include response to incidents involving Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN), Explosive Disposal (EDU) and Urban Search and Rescue (USAR). The also have specialized equipment to assist internal and external agencies in the areas of technical search.

I have probably watched way too many crime shows, but could the hazardous material perhaps be acid? I won't say what I am thinking, even though my gut is on high alert.

Yeah, maybe they watch Breaking Bad...

I don't know about jet fuel. Why store jet fuel at a remote farm when Millard has a hangar (or hangars--I admit I don't track the "Millard properties" data very closely)?

BBM - to burn things at high intensity heat?

The acid sounds like an option too... This is crazy. Seems like so much to this story. My heart goes out to the families of all involved...

I wasn't sure exactly what the UCRT was so I googled it and thought I'd share

Too many OPP officers here to count. This is one group getting what looks like a tarp unraveled. #kw pic.twitter.com/B1fPIquWiS

You beat me to it!

You beat me to it!

(Haha, I had to look it up too. I think it's kind of funny that the acronym is made up of other acronyms, and these guys do so many different things it's hard to know what they are at the farm for, but it was interesting.)
