A police officer has testified that he did not know where bullets were coming from as two colleagues were shot in an ambush by three Christian extremists on a rural Australian property two years ago.

In this photo provided by the Queensland Department of Justice and Attorney-General conspiracy theorists Gareth Train is recorded by a police body camera on Dec. 12, 2022, at a rural property at Wieambilla, Australia. A police officer testified on Tuesday, July 30, 2024, that he did not know where bullets were coming from as two colleagues were shot in an ambush by three Christian extremists on the rural Australian property two years ago.

The Train couple lived on the property and Nathaniel Train, who had previously been Stacey Train’s husband and had two children with her, was visiting from another state. Kirk said he, Arnold, McCrow and Constable Keely Brough all jumped the Trains’ front gate in search of Nathaniel Train less than two minutes before the rifle fire started.Arnold was fatally shot in the chest and McCrow was wounded moments later. Brough hid in long grass while Kirk hid behind a tree as rifle shots continued. Kirk said he lay on his stomach “trying not to get shot.”Kirk eventually saw at a distance both brothers, who were armed.
