Chief Constable pays tribute to former police officer
The Chief Constable has paid tribute to a former police officer, who lost his life to Covid-19 yesterday.
Richard 'Richie' Lloyd was 57 years old, from Ballabeg, and died in the intensive care unit at Noble's hospital just after three o'clock in the afternoon on Easter Saturday.
In a post on social media, Gary Roberts said it was the saddest day of his 36-year police career:
Today has been the saddest of my 36 yr police career. So many of us are heartbroken after the death of a friend, colleague and giant of a man, who has been taken by this wicked virus.
