Fiona Bone

A memorial garden has opened in Manchester in memory of murdered PCs Fiona Bone and Nicola Hughes.

Former Port St Mary resident Miss Bone was murdered along with her colleague while on duty in Greater Manchester in September.

Her father Paul, who lives on the Island, was at the opening of the garden yesterday and described it as a “wonderful lasting tribute” to his daughter and her co-worker.

Mr Bone thanked police for their help following the tragedy and said the family was very grateful for the help and support they’d received since his daughter’s death.

Prayers and a minute’s silence were said at a special service afterwards.
