POLICEMAN INJURED

GOSFORD. Saturday. Constable Rex Lionel Rienecker, 30, of Gosford traffic police, was injured in a collision on the Pacific Highway, five miles north of Gosford, this afternoon.

He was chasing a speeding driver when his motor cycle collided with a vehicle which came out from a side road.

Constable Rienecker was hurled to the road.

An ambulance this evening took him 53 miles to Newcastle District Hospital, where he was admitted with a fractured right forearm, severe abrasions to the head and legs, and possible fractured ribs.

Police promotions

Three Gosford police constables Rex Rienecker, R. J, Sawers, and Dick Cox, have been promoted to constables 1st class. The promotions have been held up for some time because appeals by police in other areas against promotion to other men, had to be heard first. Const. Rienecker, of Gosford’s traffic branch, has been two and a half years in the district. Const. Sawers, the lock up keeper, has been 19 months here, while Det. Cox has been in Gosford for two years.
