    Police say Tom Phillips and his children were detected in transit during their almost four year search - but never in circumstances that allowed officers to safely intervene

    Police say Tom Phillips and his children were detected in transit during their almost four year search - but never in circumstances that allowed officers to safely intervene


    Today police revealed more details about the hunt for the Marokopa fugitive - which ended in a police shoot-out earlier this month.

    They've revealed they knew Phillips had firearms and was unlikely to surrender.

    Newstalk ZB's Jordan Dunn says police likely released the information because of public interest.

    He says there's been a lot of questions about why the search took so long.
