Honour Roll
ON THIS DAY WE REMEMBER
Peter S. BALL
Constable
On Thursday 6th of August 1998, at approximately 9.06pm, Constable Ball and his partner observed two juvenile offenders in a stolen motor vehicle.
As Constable Ball and his partner approached the stolen vehicle, the two juvenile offenders ran from the vehicle and were pursued on foot by both officers.
Constable Ball apprehended one of the offenders, but during the struggle, they fell onto Crawford Street, Cannington. Constable Ball was struck by a passing vehicle and died in early hours of 7th of August 1998 from the injuries he sustained.
Constable Ball was given a Police funeral with full honours.
Constable Ball leaves behind his wife Tracey and young daughter.

The Police Ode
As the sun surely sets:
dawn will see it arise,
for service, above self,
demands its own prize.
You have fought the good fight:
life’s race has been run,
and peace, your reward,
for eternity begun.
And we that are left,
shall never forget,
rest in peace friend and colleague,
for the sun has now set.
We will remember.
We will remember.
Hasten the dawn.
