HOUSE KEEPING
1. Senior Constable Riley Scott is now back to work on light duties, he is helping with heaps of paperwork that I had put off. Thank you Scotty.
2. S/C Tony Moss is back and fully operational and now eager to have his first ‘foot’ chase.
3. If you have been driving or walking past the police station and wondering what’s happening behind the police station, a new custody cell is being built.
It’s an approved standard ‘cell’ and associate rooms for custody matters including charge and interview room. I am wondering who’s going to be my first
‘guest’ after the completion.
