Weird isn't it??

 

Clearly somebody is planning some sort of criminal act but they had the decency to let CRT know first......nice of them.

Maybe the emergency services have a planned training exercise.

That sounds like advanced notice of a request to drain a few pounds on the flight.  They'll be looking for something (gun? knife?) that's been used in a crime and thrown into the canal.

 

When it's a body they are looking for they don't usually wait until the day after to start work!

“An update will be provided tomorrow afternoon.”

exciting 

 

I bet it’s a shooter they’re looking for

No, they happily do those with the canal open.  We've seen quite a few where the police or the fire service draw straws for who has to go in the water and who gets to make cheap wisecracks from the side.  They do ask you to slow down and avoid the swimmers though!
