Police were this afternoon back inside the fire-ravaged home of missing Shropshire millionaire Chris Foster after earlier being forced to pull back when debris began to fall.
Mr Foster, 50, his wife Jill, 49, and daughter Kirstie, 15, have not been seen since the fire at Osbaston Hall, Maesbrook, in the early hours of Tuesday. It is not known if they were in the house.
Today falling debris meant specialist police search teams had to get to safety amid fears the house could collapse.
West Mercia Police spokeswoman Maria Hawkaluk said: "We did enter the main part of the house this morning, but teams had to pull back immediately when debris began to fall.
"Engineers have returned to shore up the dangerous areas."
Detectives revealed that the bodies of three dogs had been found at the hall.
