    A dark day for Nelson, as it comes to terms with a Police officer being killed on the job

    A dark day for Nelson, as it comes to terms with a Police officer being killed on the job


    Senior Sergeant Lyn Fleming died following an incident at Nelson's Buxton Square Carpark early yesterday morning.

    Another officer is now in a stable condition, a third officer has been concussed, and two members of the public are also injured.

    Newstalk ZB's Katrina Bennett says, the city's never ever dealt with a situation like this.

    She says she was born and raised in Nelson, and went to Nelson College for Girls where Fleming was a netball coach.

    Bennett says everyone she's been speaking to finds this situation unthinkable.
