devastated



  • HIS UNCLE DALE SHRIMPTON


Maureen Shrimpton, also spoke of
her grief. She said: “Just a really
horrible day.
“Our grandson Andrew was
killed while doing his police work.
“So proud of him. Our love goes
to his lovely wife, mum, dad,
brother and all his family and
friends. Love Nan and Bubba xxx.”
PC Harper joined the force as a
special constable in 2010 and
became a police officer a year later.
Serving in the roads policing
proactive unit based at Abingdon
police station, he was a “highly

night, detectives were going
through audio and video of the
incident taken from the car-
mounted and body-worn cameras.
A forensic tent had been set up
behind the BMW in the apparent
spot where PC Harper died.
Officers laid two bunches of
flowers at the scene and Mr Camp-
bell said the force’s flags were flying
at half mast in his honour.
A postmortem was being carried
out yesterday afternoon to estab-
lish the cause of death.
PC Harper’s grandmother,

“Thank you so much to everyone
who came and who helped to make
it the most perfect day.”

during the Westminster Bridge
terror attack.
As investigations continued last

BY TOM PETTIFOR Crime Editor
and LIZ DUNPHY
THE distraught uncle of PC
Andrew Harper paid tribute to
his nephew yesterday saying
the whole family had been left
“devastated” by his death.
Dale Shrimpton said: “He’s my
oldest nephew. My sister’s first
born. Mum and dad’s first
grandson... and was married two
weeks ago.
“We are devastated. He was the
loveliest person that you will ever
meet. I can’t begin to tell you how
we feel.”
PC Harper was allegedly hit by a
car and dragged under it on
Thursday night, while responding
to a burglary call.
The 28-year-old died at around
11.30pm, near the A4 Bath Road,
between Reading and Newbury, at
the village of Sulhamstead, Berks.
Ten people, including a 13-year-
old boy, were last night being
quizzed on suspicion of murder,
Thames Valley Police said.
Chief Constable John Campbell
said: “What we do know is Andrew
had been dragged along by a
vehicle.”
He said PC Harper had got out of
his marked police car, leaving his
colleague in the vehicle, when he
was allegedly struck and killed.
Aerial pictures showed skid-
marks on the road and a blood trail,
with a grey BMW on a verge nearby.
Officers yesterday raided a trav-
eller site near Burghfield Common,
around two miles from the scene.
A force spokesman said: “This
police presence in Four Houses
Caravan Park forms part of the
investigation following the death of
PC Andrew Harper.
“Officers are at the scene making
enquiries.”
Three police vans remained at
the site last night.
Dept Chief Con Jason Hogg
said the force was “devas-
tated at the loss of our
colleague”.
And Prime
Minister said the
tragedy was a
“powerful
reminder” of the
bravery displayed
by officers on the
streets every day.
PC Harper had
been due to go on
honeymoon next with
his wife, Lissie, after their
“dream wedding”.
Pictures show the couple cele-
brating their big day at Ardington
House, a Georgian manor in
Oxfordshire.
One shows them smiling as they
cut their wedding cake alongside a
sign saying “happily ever Harper”.
Last week Lissie shared a picture
of her beaming at Andrew with the
caption: “Happiest day imaginable.”
Describing Andrew as her “best
friend”, Lissie wrote on Facebook:
“I can’t believe our wedding was
almost two weeks ago, we have just
