Police have discovered at least four 'suspicious devices' at the scene where a gas mask-wearing plumber armed with a chainsaw was shot by officers.
Sean O'Meara, 36, is understood to currently be in an induced coma and is believed to have suffered life-changing injuries after being shot by armed police outside his parents' home in Hollingbourne, near Maidstone, Kent on Monday evening.
Kent Police were initially called to the property opposite the Park Gate Inn around 7.15pm over an outstanding warrant.
O'Meara refused to come out, prompting a significant armed police response.
Body-worn camera footage captured O'Meara wearing body armour and a gas mask, wielding a chainsaw and holding another object that officers feared could be a homemade firearm or an improvised explosive device (IED).
