Novichok police talk
The first police officers to arrive on the scene after former Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia were poisoned, have spoken for the first time.
Sergeant Tracey Holloway and PC Alex Collins, from Wiltshire Police, rushed to assist the pair who had collapsed on a park bench in Salisbury on March 4 after they were attacked with a nerve agent.
They said many more people could have been injured by the Novichok nerve gas and they hope the perpetrators will be brought to justice.
Constable Collins said: “There was a phone with Russian writing on it. The names weren’t familiar. That was strange. It didn’t feel right. It wasn’t quite normal.”
