Manx couple caught in midst of Salisbury poisoning

Shopping in area where Skripals were found

As the Salisbury spy poisoning scandal continues to top international headlines - a young Manx couple have been speaking about finding themselves living in the centre of the drama.

Maria Shilling and Dani Rose and their 7 month old son moved to Salisbury from the Island a short time ago.

Maria was out shopping and at the Greggs Bakery immediately beside the bench where the Skripals were found poisoned with a nerve agent, shortly before the incident came to light.

She says it was immediately obvious something out of the ordinary had happened.
