    At last! A cop who speaks English.

    We're all used to police on the telly talking about "A male person, Caucasian, who was last observed moving in a northerly direction and who is a person of interest in the alleged crime".

    Today, finally, one of them broke free of the "Police Speak Manual"

    After a guy in Melbourne caused the evacuation of the National Bank by claiming (wrongly) that he had the corona virus, the Victorian Police Chief (Graham Ashton) departed from the customary "police speak" by saying "He was a dick head, clearly. Of course I stand by that advice."
