    The 62-year-old Senior Sergeant was killed after being hit by a car in Buxton Square, while on patrol in the early hours of January 1st.

    Her partner, Senior Sergeant Adam Ramsay was seriously injured.

    32-year-old Hayden Tasker's facing six charges - including murder and attempted murder.
