The horsemen quickened their pace and as they came up on either side of the horse and trap they shouted “Bail Up” - their faces were covered with black crepe masks. Joseph cut the pony with the whip and made a run for it. The robbers began firing their revolvers with one killing the pony instantly tossing both men onto the roadway. Whilst one man covered the two men with his pistol, the other grabbed the bag containing the money from the trap. As he did so two men ran up from Block 14 to assist the fallen men but were warned off. At that moment the wind briefly blew the crepe mask off the first man’s face. Both robbers rode off at speed, Joseph Winter taking out his pistol and firing a number of rounds & missing! The Escape Route The robbers went over Fisher Bridge, past the Colac Hotel and through Tin Town (The wool stores area), On to Grand Junction Rd, then Torrens Road, crossing the rail lines at the Cheltenham Station, on to Woodville, & the Reed Beds at Fulham Gardens.

  • South Australian's Safety and Security
    MINISTER FOR POLICE, EMERGENCY SERVICES AND CORRECTIONAL SERVICES HON VINCENT TARZIA MP MEDIA RELEASE Tuesday 22 June 2021 South Australians’ safety and security supported with increased investment for Police and Emergency Services Almost $100 million has been dedicated to SAPOL over the last two budgets for its COVID-19 response as officers continue their valued work protecting South Australians, forming part of the Marshall Liberal Government’s crucial recovery plan from the pandemic. A total $77.5million is invested in SAPOL in today’s State Budget 2021-22 to support the continued COVID-19 operational response at medi-hotels, border checkpoints and for compliance tasks. This includes a significant boost to policing resources across the state to further enhance the safety and security of South Australians, with $15.2m provided in 2021-22 and a further $8.4m in 2022-23 to extend the employment of 54 Protective Security Officers (PSO’s) employed in 2020-21 and recruit and train an additional 114 PSO’s. “The Marshall Government is dedicated to forging a safe passage out of the pandemic while supporting SAPOL and its hardworking officers who protect South Australians,” Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services Vincent Tarzia said. “We value the critical work they do in keeping the community safe, and the Government’s increased investment for SAPOL will ensure they continue to be well-resourced and well- equipped to carry out their important duties.” Stage 3 and 4 of SAPOL’s Shield System will get $21.2m over three years to finalise the implementation of a comprehensive integrated system, directly linking with other justice sector agencies, not only improving data sharing but leading to a more efficient use of policing resources.
