Forensic officers are scouring the scene of an MPs fatal stabbing in a church.
Police in white suits are here at Belfairs Methodist Church in Leigh after the death of Sir David Amess MP.
The officers have been seen going in and out the church and their vehicles.
It comes as emotional residents and friends lay flowers for the MP at the scene.
Two large cordons are still in place with police guarding the scene.
Earlier today Prime Minister Boris Johnson has laid flowers at the scene of the fatal stabbing of MP Sir David Amess, which police believe could be linked to Islamist extremism.
Mr Johnson, accompanied by Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer, Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle and Home Secretary Priti Patel, laid a wreath at the front of Belfairs Methodist Church in Leigh, where Sir David was killed on Friday.
