Lieutenant Governor oversees proceedings

Police officers who died in the line of duty on the Isle of Man have been formally recognised with two new memorials.

They were unveiled by the Lieutenant Governor yesterday.

One sits outside Police Headquarters, near the flagpole, and the other within the reception of the building.

 

The names of five officers are engraved into the tribute – John Craige, John Wright, John ‘Jack’ Cretney, Gordon Black and Denis Hamer.

Richard Hewitt is the chair of the Isle of Man Police Federation which has funded the project:
