Roses are red, violets are blue, here’s some lil’ love stories just for you

It wouldn’t be February 14 without a little romance.
We’ve met with some real-life ‘QPS couples’, who may not have been married at first sight, but they are ‘awww’-inspiring.
These two couples are both part of the Queensland Police Service (QPS) family and are consistently supporting each other in their respective roles as they join the collective aim of making the community safer.
Merv and Jeannie
Love is in the air… and for these two senior sergeants, it has been for quite some time.
After meeting on the job over 20 years ago, they’re a top contender romantic union and represent our QPS – older and slightly less epic – Jake Peralta and Amy Santiago policing power couple.
Following a courtship, some toit nups and a few children later, meet present day Senior Sergeant Mervyn Murray and Senior Sergeant Jeannie Murray.

This duo have a combined 50 years of Service within the QPS and are showing us

Orientation Week reminder from your local police

The new academic year is quickly approaching, but before it does, students will be flocking and returning to university campuses for Orientation Week.
We know this week is about settling in, making new friends and having fun before the study commences, but we also want it to be about something else.
When making the time to celebrate new beginnings and new friends, please keep your own and your friends’ safety in mind.
Everyone likes to celebrate and perhaps enjoy a drink or two, but we all have our limits.
Please stick to yours and watch out for your friends when heading out.

To ensure a safe night for all, police have the following tips:

Watch your mates;
Know your limits;
Drink some water between each drink; and
Have a plan to get home safe when you call it a night.

Inner West Crime Prevention Unit Officers are again focusing on educating university students on the consequences of alcohol fuelled violence
