RIP Snipes.

Yes.

 

[Jasper]

Yes.

What terrible news. I’m guessing it is judging by his username. Leaves behind a wife and son. Just awful. Rest easy lad.

Bloody hell man, RIP Snipes.

‘Snipes’ was a colleague and to say this has had a devastating affect on everyone who knew and worked with him is an understatement. He was a true gentleman, always smiling, willing to help and had time for everyone. The world is much worse place without him and thoughts go out to his family. So tragic, I’m genuinely numb and dumbfounded by the horrific news. RIP Wez, it was a pleasure knowing you

Sorry for your loss. Absolutely tragic. RIP.

R.I.P. Snipes, thought are with his family and friends.

Aw man. This is tragic. Seen the tribute from Northumbria Police earlier but obviously didn't know he was an SMBer.

RIP Wes

Was truly shocked when I saw this on Look North tonight and saddened to now find out he was one of us.

Sorry for your loss.
