A tiny but potentially deadly radioactive capsule has been found in Western Australia's outback, after it sparked a frantic search and unprecedented public health warning spanning hundreds of kilometres.

 Just drive slowly along with a Geiger counter until you get a beep.  And there it is!

WA Emergency Services Minister Stephen Dawson said it was found 74km south of Newman on the Great Northern Highway this morning.

The Fire and Emergency Services Commissioner, Darren Klemm, said the capsule was found two metres from the side of the road.

He said a search vehicle was driving past at 70 kilometres per hour on the Great Northern Highway when a detection device revealed radiation.



Meanwhile, local people begin to report strange things being sighted, and pets suddenly disappearing at night...crikey!
