An off-duty policewoman who was killed by a lorry as she helped at the scene of a crash “epitomises the very best of British policing”, a senior officer has said.
North Yorkshire Police constable Rosie Prior, 45, was standing on the verge of the A19 at Bagby, near the town of Thirsk, on Saturday morning, after coming across a road collision, when she and two others were struck by a heavy goods vehicle (HGV).
