A Royal Gibraltar Police officer was this morning presented with a Commendation by the Commissioner of Police for saving a man’s life.
Detective Constable Simon Debono was off duty on Thursday 5 December last year, when he spotted a cyclist falling under an articulated lorry by the Waterport Roundabout.
Simon ran over and stopped the lorry driver from continuing to drive over the man before calling the emergency services.
Commissioner Richard Ullger, said: “The officer’s quick thinking and professionalism on that day helped prevent further injuries and helped save the man’s life.”
