 Darling Downs Police District. Ladies and gentlemen, as you were aware yesterday, there was an incident transversing three districts, the Morton District, the Ipswich District, and the Darling Downs District, which resulted in the apprehension of a 32-year-old Ipswich man for a number of fences, including dangerous driving of a motor vehicle, which resulted in a pursuit across that area. As a result of that matter, as I said, the 32-year-old male has been charged with 25 offences. He appeared in the Ipswich Magistrates Court this morning and was reminded in custody to the 22nd of May for further mention. The matter is under investigation. We have an internal process in the Queensland Police Service, where the incident, as a result of a number of processes, will be investigated by a senior officer within the district. And as a result of that, I'm unable to comment further in regards to that matter. As I mentioned earlier, the man has appeared in court, and as the matter is for mention, and court proceedings are still continuing, we're unable to comment specifically on the incident itself. So at this point in time, we appreciate the fact that the matter was resolved peacefully, that the apprehension of the offender was conducted, that our police involved in this incident were not seriously injured. Our people did a very, very good job. The risk and the inherent risk to our police from day to day when they work towards protecting our community is always apparent, and we're very mindful of that fact, but that is the nature of the beast that we have as members of the Queensland Police Service. Tony, can you tell us how are you feeling today? Yeah, I'm fine. It's just another day at work today. In case after a man who possibly could have been armed by yourself, can you tell us what was going through your head? Oh, well, look, it's... all I did was court and offender. You know, it's something that goes on all day, every day, right across Queensland by other police. The only difference in this occasion was the Channel 7 chopper filmed it all, you know, so it's just what the police do day in, day out, really. Can you tell us about that heart-stopping moment where you spent allegedly time to grab your weapon? Yeah, look, I can't comment too much on the actual incidents still being investigated, but look, we undergo training and that sort of thing. You know, we're provided with pretty good equipment as far as our holsters and whatnot with locking devices, so, you know, I just instinct kicks in and you just go from there, I suppose. Oh, well, look, as I said, I can't comment too much further, but there are locking mechanisms on the holsters that we're issued with, so, you know, they're for a reason and they work. Oh, yeah, I've wrestled plenty of offenders and that's just, as I said, what goes on all the time, so it just got caught on camera this time. Can you tell us about the difference the Channel 7 chopper did make yesterday? Oh, it was very valuable that I in the sky makes a big difference, especially when it pursuits. We're talking about pursuits, so, yeah, it's very important to have that communication and that intel that's ongoing at the time. Was it comforting when you were... Yeah, absolutely, yeah. Yeah, they watched the telly last night, yeah. Tell me, what did your wife say? Oh, yeah, she just wants me to be careful, I suppose, but, you know, she's an ex-police officer herself. She knows what it's all about. Yeah, third shift back, yeah. Tell me about the sport you had over there. Yeah, I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the publicity and the media and the accolades. As I said, it's not really deserved. It's just what we do day in, day out, really. Yeah, I think so. As I said, it's just doing what we have to do. Yeah, we get paid by the government to try and protect Queenslanders, so we've got to try and get these people off the streets. Yeah, just a bit of bark off my arms. It's nothing too serious. It'll be right. Yeah, I was constantly giving him directions and trying to get him to comply. He wasn't doing a lot of that, but yeah, constantly providing verbal communication and direction, yeah. Yeah, it was good that they arrived shortly after and, yeah, they took the burden off me having to, you know, wheel him back to the roadway, I suppose, yeah. You're pretty tough. It was a long time. Yeah, I was pretty exhausted. I'd had enough by then. I'll go for a run this early, I think, yeah. Did you, will you at least admit at some stage that you had a car so anyone else would have? Yeah, well, as I said, the instinct just kicks in and, you know, I felt secure with me. The equipment I had wouldn't come loose, so yeah, I just rolled with it. Yeah, initially it didn't work as well as I'd hoped. It sometimes takes a while to kick in, so, um, but yeah. Look, as I said, it's all under investigation. It'll all come out. And you're back at work today? Yeah, absolutely. And tomorrow? Yeah, yeah, night shift tomorrow. You can come with me and I'll wrestle drunks tomorrow night, too. Thank you so much. No worries. How long have you been here for? In Gatton. Oh, about five years. And have you been here for 22 years? Yeah, about 22 years. I mean, south-east corner, yeah. Yeah, yeah, look, yeah. Well, you know, we don't get involved in chases so much nowadays, so sort of a bit of a throwback to years ago, I suppose, but yeah, look, as I said, it's just catching another offender and that's a good thing, getting off the streets. It's very, very commendable, Aaron, and the thing is, and as Tony mentioned, that our core purpose is to protect the community of Queensland. And that's what Tony was doing yesterday. And that's what many, many police do every day across Queensland. So we anticipate that, as I say, there will be an investigation of process. That's a standard process. We investigate and have a look at these matters as an internal review. I'm very confident that the appropriate actions have been completed in this instance. It was a good outcome for everyone. As I said, the offender was arrested, was in custody. Our community's safer with these people off the streets. No worries. Anything else? No, that's good. Thanks. Did you meet your wife? Yeah, yep. What did she say to you, honestly, last night? Oh, yeah, just be careful. Can I come home in one place? She knows about what had happened before. No, she got home a bit late from work, so yeah, she just heard what the kids had to say, I suppose. What did they say about that? Oh, yeah, they were pretty tough, getting text messages and whatever from mates. Oh, yeah, I don't remember. I've had that many emails and whatever. It's all a bit over the top, I think, so yeah, I think it might be yesterday's news tomorrow. Thank you, sir. Thanks, Aaron. Thanks, people. Sorry, three. 15, 13 and 11. No worries. I've been in Brisbane as well as one-man stations and larger district stations as well, mainly in general duties, yeah. Thanks, Aaron. No worries. Thanks, people. Much appreciated. Done?
