Roll of Honor
Incident
PC Green was on patrol near a club at closing time and noticed that, as the majority of patrons dispersed, one group seemed to remain there. As he approached the group a member of a local gang brandished a knife at PC Green who then tackled the knifeman and arrested him. David was then surrounded by the knifeman’s friends who enabled his escape. PC Green gave chase as the group ran off, apprehending one of the males, but was stabbed in the chest by the male who also had a knife.
