Remembering PC Ryan Hunt

25 May 2021

Tributes have today been paid to “popular and respected” West Midlands PC Ryan Hunt on the 15th anniversary of his death.

Ryan (31) was working undercover on a major drugs operation in South Yorkshire when he died after being hit by a lorry.

Jon Nott, West Midlands Police Federation chair, worked with Ryan in Handsworth before he moved to undercover work.

Jon said: “Ryan was really popular and respected, both as a police officer and as a person, and he continues to be missed by everyone who knew him.

“He was committed and dedicated to his job, and made a valuable contribution to policing.

“Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues on this difficult day.”
