Local police recently took a moment to recognize an officer killed on a local highway three decades ago.
Members of the Superior East OPP's Chapleau detachment recently attended the memorial site for Provincial Constable Kenneth Roy, who was killed in a collision with a logging truck on Highway 101 about halfway to Foleyet - just east of the Shawmere River - in May 1995 - at the time, Roy was returning to the South Porcupine Detachment after working in Chapleau.
The local officers replaced the memorial cross, which was in need of replacement.
