Others changed their profile pictures to a blue line.

His devastated brother Nigel said: “Heartbroken is an understatement. RIP little brother. Until we meet again.”

His local MP Liz Saville Roberts called him “a gentleman of an officer and a loss to both this force and community”.

North Wales Chief Constable Carl Foulkes offered his “heartfelt sympathies”.
