One of the Metropolitan Police' most senior officers has described their response to the murder of Drummer Lee Rigby as 'very, very good'.

Assistant Commissioner Cressida Dick was appearing before the House of Commons Home Affairs select committee.

Her evidence comes after two men - Michael Adebolajo, 28, and Michael Adebowale, 22 - appeared in separate courts charged with Drummer Rigby's murder.

Ms Dick told the committee that at its peak the Woolwich investigation had 600 officers employed directly, including 100 from its national counter-terrorism network.

Officers have searched 17 addresses and six cars, she added.
