    Police are reaffirming the risks that were posed in approaching fugitive Tom Phillips - after the discovery of main campsites

    Police are reaffirming the risks that were posed in approaching fugitive Tom Phillips - after the discovery of main campsites


    After nearly four years on the run, Phillips died the early hours of September the 8th during a police shootout.

    Authorities have now uncovered two large, semi-permanent, heavily concealed structures in the bush around the King Country township of Marokopa.

    Newstalk ZB Reporter Jordan Dunn says this is on-top of makeshift campsites found after Phillips' death.

    He says Police believe Phillips was regularly moving between campsites - making it much harder to find him.
