Steve was diagnosed with a lung disease, years earlier, and was on the transplant list, although he deteriorated prior to a suitable lung being found.
Steve was a good hearted and very funny bastard when I worked with him at Fairfield Police Station.
In his early days, at Fairfield, we were on Night Shift driving around the CBD when we were given the details of a vehicle which had recently been stolen in the area.
We were in a Holden sedan with a single roof bar which only had a blue revolving light in the centre and the old pull / push button ‘Were’ siren ( manually pulling and pushing the toggle switch produced the siren sound as the mechanic component spun around ).
A short time later we driving towards the Horsley Dve when we spotted the stolen vehicle turn in front of us with ‘4 heads on board’.
In those days we only had 4 working police radio channels and all Warrant and Vehicle enquiries were made on the ‘back channel’. Steve went to the ‘back channel’ and did a transport check ( just to confirm we had the correct vehicle – which we did ).
He sat there dumb founded ( this was his first stolen car ). I told him that he had better go back to the ‘working’ channel and tell VKG – which he did.
I wasn’t in a hurry to stop the stolen vehicle and it wasn’t being driven in an unusual manner. We followed it out to Smithfield whilst awaiting other Police vehicles to come to the area.
It was now time to make the Stop. The stolen vehicle casually approached a Stop sign and complied with it. I then drove up alongside the drivers door to indicate to the driver to pull over. At this time, Steve leant out of the passenger door of the Police car, with his small rubber baton in hand and attempted to hit the driver as he commenced to drive off. One of the funniest bloody things I have ever seen.
We pursued the stolen vehicle down into the Merrylands patrol where the offenders abandoned the vehicle alongside of the old Wool Shed and decamped on foot.
The offenders were run to ground ( we were hell of a lot fitter back in those days ), arrested and taken to Fairfield Police Station where they were charged.
