Hello there,
Fred J. CLARKE [c.1900-1960]
On 1 September 1950, Chief Inspector F. J. Clarke was shot and seriously wounded in a gun battle with an armed kidnapping suspect in Ha Kwai Chung Village. In the incident, the Commanding Officer for Kowloon and New Territories Edmund Colin Luscombe and Detective Sub-Inspector Alexander Leslie were tragically killed. Chief Inspector Clarke retired in 1951 and left for Australia.
Senior Inspector Ronald John McEwen, Killed in Action November 5, 1967
Greetings to all.
I am the daughter of the abovementioned police officer and am on a quest to discover as much as I can about him, his life and his career. I believe there were artifacts of his stored in the Police Museum and newspaper coverage of his death.
I realise this is a long shot and I'm depending on the kindness of strangers, but I would be exceedingly grateful for any information or guidance on where to look.
Sincerely
Rona McEwen (Barbara Wanless - adoptive name))
