The Island’s new chief constable says he hopes his appointment will inspire young people to succeed.
Gary Roberts officially took the helm of the Isle of Man Constabulary on Friday – the first Manxman ever to hold the position.
At his swearing-in ceremony Deemster David Doyle said the appointment of a ‘home grown’ constable was an important one for the Island.
Mr Roberts has served in every rank in the police force since joining up in 1984.
