1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning.

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 2: Terrible, terrible accident yesterday that led to the loss of

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:13,039
Speaker 2: four Melbourne police officers happened yesterday late afternoon. That's the

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 2: most police officers that have ever been lost in Victoria.

5
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 2: The last time one go yeah, the last time so

6
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 2: many police officers were lost was when they lost three

7
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 2: officers gunned down by ned Kelly in eighteen seventy eight. So,

8
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 2: I don't know if you don't know what happened yesterday

9
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: at about record to six or so in the evening.

10
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 2: A Porsche driver is pulled over by a police car,

11
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 2: two police officers in there. The driver was speeding. I

12
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 2: think there must have been some incident because they called

13
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 2: for backup and another police car came as backup, and

14
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 2: then a semi trailer, a semi truck, says Hugh. Is

15
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 2: that a semi trailer, a semi truck into the two

16
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 2: police cars and to the Porsche and they think there's

17
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 2: been a medical incident that led to this driver smashing

18
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 2: into them.

19
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 1: I ah, so the truck driver had something.

20
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: Well, that's what they think. Obviously they've done their mandatory

21
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 2: drug and alcohol testing and waiting on those results. But

22
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 2: they think that the drug plowed into them because they'd

23
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 2: been he'd had some sort of medical situation. The Porsche

24
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 2: driver was uninjured and has run off, so police obviously

25
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 2: asking for that person to come forward.

26
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: It's a dangerous life being a copper.

27
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 2: Isn't it? Just the capricious nature of it.

28
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,839
Speaker 1: But you look, I'm reading a book at the moment.

29
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: It's called Where the Body's Lay, and it's Jeffrey Deva.

30
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: Oh his books freaked me out. They're too extreme for me.

31
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: But it's about this young police officer who goes to

32
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: investigate a nine one one call at this lonely farmhouse

33
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: and it's pretty routine, but she ends up walking in

34
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: on a whole mafia, gangland, tripe hit.

35
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 2: And well.

36
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: A page turner. But you know, just the and and police.

37
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: I guess you deal with this every day. It could

38
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: be like the most benign thing in the world, pulling

39
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: up someone for speeding. You don't know what that person's

40
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: going to do.

41
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: Well, aren't we lucky when you're in a country that

42
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: doesn't have guns. Imagine you know, American police officerly you

43
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 2: never know, which is what led to a whole lot

44
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 2: of stuff over there. But a very very sad day.

45
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 2: And imagine that not just for this family, but for

46
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 2: their families, but for the police fraternity. Terrible, terrible day.

47
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 2: Join the and Amanda in the morning.
