Dorset Police has paid tribute to one of their officers who died at home on Monday 30th March after self-isolating following signs that he could have had COVID-19. 

Dorset Police’s Chief Constable, James Vaughan, said: 

“I can confirm one of our serving officers sadly died at his home in Bournemouth just before 10 am today, Monday 30th March 2020.  

“He was 56-years-old and had been unwell since Christmas with a chest infection. He had been off sick since Thursday 19th March and went into self-isolation following COVID-19 guidance from the NHS after displaying symptoms.

“It is not yet confirmed if the death is COVID-19-related and I would strongly emphasise that it is too early to speculate on the circumstances surrounding his death.

“We are all deeply saddened by the death. 

“This is a huge loss to the police family, and my thoughts and prayers are with the officer’s family, friends and close friends, many of whom are Dorset Police colleagues. I have relayed to them my deepest condolences.

“I would ask you to please respect their privacy at this very sad time.”

Before you go...

WE NEED YOUR HELP.Here at Emergency Services News, we aim to tell you stories that the mainstream media are not interested in reporting. Whilst the MSM love to berate and ridicule the emergency services, who is there to report on the realities of serving on the front line?

Emergency Services News is currently a loss-making entity. But our team of volunteers, all former emergency services personnel, do not do it for the money.

We do it because we are sick and tired of the mainstream media constantly trying to undermine the men and women who put their lives on the line to keep you and your family safe.

How many MSM journalists who speak ill of the emergency services have actually dared to don the uniform and risk their own lives to save the life of a complete stranger? If you would like to help back our mission of reporting on fact-based news, then please consider helping to support us financially.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
