The Nelson community is gathering today at the Trafalgar Centre to bid farewell to Senior Sergeant Lyn Fleming, a dedicated police officer, netball coach, and community figure, who lost her life on New Year’s Day after being struck by a vehicle while on patrol.
The 38-year police veteran will be honoured with a police motorcade and a service attended by hundreds.
A 32-year-old man facing multiple charges related to the incident, including murder, will appear in court next month.
