- Fred_Fairfax abstract "Detective Sergeant Frederick William 'Fred' Fairfax GC (17 June 1917, Westminster, London–February 1998, Yeovil) was a British police man awarded the George Cross for his heroism in chasing the armed robbers Derek Bentley and Christopher Craig. The pair had broken into a warehouse in Croydon and were pursued by Fairfax onto the roof of the building. The police officer grabbed Bentley, when Craig shot him, grazing his shoulder. Despite his injury, the unarmed Fairfax chased Bentley and managed to arrest and subdue him. More officers arrived at the scene and Constable Sidney Miles scaled the roof, only to be shot dead by Craig, who then jumped from the roof after expending his ammunition, injured himself upon landing and was arrested. The award of the medal was announced in the London Gazette of the 6 January 1953, as were the George Medals awarded to Police Constables Norman Harrison and James McDonald. Police Constable Robert Jaggs was given the British Empire Medal and Police Constable Miles was posthumously awarded the Queen's Police Medal for Gallantry.In January 1953 he was transferred to duties in London's West End. Fairfax retired from the police force in April 1962. He died in 1998 just a few months before Bentley was pardoned of murdering Police Constable Miles.".
