00:07 the body of a man in the car park of a radiology clinic at Hope Island. Paramedics were called,

00:12 but the victim had suffered a fatal chest wound.

00:15 We heard about 30 sirens at the same time. I mean, it was just full on. And you don't

00:20 expect that in Hope Island, in a resort community.

00:23 It's pretty out of the ordinary. It's extraordinary, really. It's sort of not something that happens

00:29 around here too much.

00:31 Police tracked two men to nearby Sanctuary Cove, setting up roadblocks and checking cars

00:35 one by one. By late afternoon, two men were arrested. They're now being questioned by
