The Western Australia Police Force (WAPF) is currently coordinating a joint investigation into the origins of an unidentified item washed up on a remote beach in Western Australia.
We want to reassure the community that we are actively engaged in a collaborative effort with various State and Federal agencies to determine the object's origin and nature.
The investigation is ongoing, and until further information is available, we urge everyone to refrain from drawing conclusions.
In order to maintain the integrity of the investigation, officers from the Western Australia Police Force are currently guarding the object.
This measure has been taken to ensure the preservation of potential evidence and facilitate further expert examination.
The object is being treated as hazardous, until the origin of it can be established. People in the area should keep a safe distance.
The Western Australia Police Force is committed to maintaining open lines of communication and will provide updates as soon as significant developments arise. We appreciate the public's patience and cooperation during this investigation.
At this early stage it appears the object did not originate from a commercial aircraft.
WAPF would like to thank those members of the public who located the item and alerted authorities.
