Negotiators are trying to talk Mr Moat into giving himself up....
There are reports that Mr Moat was chased through the village and cornered at the riverbank by the allotment gardens...
as an aside , it is hilarious watching the live news with the presenters, who are on camera, who do not realise they are on air their tie straightening and expression straightening are hilarious!!!
Mr Moat is very alone within a cordon of Police officers... the Police do appear to be being very careful not to push this situation to the point of Mr Moat committing suicide or being shot by the Police themselves...
Personally I am amazed at the restraint that is being shown, will this reassure the general public that the Police are better than many believe them to be, it would be good propaganda for them if they managed to achieve a peaceful outcome!
God what a media circus this is ( and I suppose I am apart of it) the reporters are scrambling to find a view point which they can see all from...how much will the house residents charge for the privilege of using the upstairs back bedroom window...
Hopefully this will end with no further loss of life or injury... but ended it appears to be...
