From the Press Association news wire:
ONE-LEGGED CONSTABLE
Disability campaigners welcomed the appointment of a one-legged police officer.
The constable, believed to be the first officer in Britain to wear a prosthetic leg, has started duties as a probationary recruit with West Midlands Police.
He recently completed his training at the Tally Ho! centre in Birmingham after
completing all the necessary tests and does not wish to be named. Sandy Coulbourn, of the Shaw Trust, a charity which helps disabled people into work, praised the force for its positive approach.
