Kent Police confirmed that searches at the scene are now complete, and the road which had been intermittently closed since Monday has been made safe. As part of ongoing searches in the area throughout the week, at least nine suspicious devices were dealt with by the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team.

Bodycam footage showed a man holding a chainsaw and another object, which officers suspected to be a firearm or IED, while wearing a gas mask and body armour.
