Bravery awards for three Southport police heroes

Sergeant Gregory Gillespie, Constable Luke Holden and police community support officer Timothy Parry were the first officers to arrive on the scene at the Taylor Swift-themed workshop on July 29 last year.

Rudakubana, 18, had murdered Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, Bebe King, six, and Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and injured 10 others including eight children. He was confronted by the officers as he stood at the top of a flight of stairs holding a large knife.
