He could have experienced the same thing as me.

A brave detective from the WA Police force has shared his story of recovery after being injured in the line of duty. The incident occurred when he was allegedly struck by a wanted man in Perth's east, leaving him with serious injuries including 16 broken ribs, a broken arm, and a fractured foot. After spending a month in the hospital, Greg McDougall is now on the road to recovery and was among the many officers and loved ones participating in a charity walk in honor of their late colleague, Constable Anthony Woods.

The tragic loss of Constable Woods last year has deeply affected the police force, especially Detective Senior Constable McDougall who understands the danger of their job all too well. In a recent interview, he expressed his gratitude for being alive and the importance of paying respects to his fallen colleague. McDougall's family also joined him in this meaningful event, showing their support and solidarity for the police community.

McDougall was critically injured when he was allegedly struck and dragged by a Toyota Hilux during a police operation. Despite the challenges he faced, including pins, plates, and nerve damage in his arm, as well as numbness in his leg, he was determined to participate in the three-kilometer walk to honor Constable Woods. McDougall's positive attitude and determination to get back to work in April is truly admirable.

The first Woodsy's Walk to Remember was held at Lake Leschenaultia in Chidlow, with over 100 people in attendance. The event was organized to honor Constable Woods and raise funds for a good cause. The Police Commissioner, Col Blanch, also joined the walk and emphasized the importance of never forgetting fallen officers. He also expressed his gratitude for these special events that honor their colleagues.

The Woods family hopes to make Woodsy's Walk an annual event to remember Anthony and support a cause close to their hearts. All funds raised from the event will go to Police Legacy, an organization that supports families of fallen officers. McDougall and the rest of the police community are grateful for the support shown by the public and are determined to continue honoring their fallen colleagues and supporting their families.
