The forensic experts, dressed in blue protective suits, could be seen walking away from the four sites of interest in Sandwich with the plastic bags.
One had a pair of bandage cutting scissors inside while others contained a black item in a smaller zip lock pouch.
What appeared to be the handle to some kind of tool was put into a transparent protective tubing to take away for analysis.
