Western Australia Police Star

The medal is awarded to Western Australia Police sworn personnel who are killed or seriously injured whilst carrying out their primary functions whether on or off duty.

The Western Australia Police Star is a circular bronze-gold coloured medal, 38 mm in diameter, surmounted with St Edward's Crown.

The blank reverse is engraved at its center with the recipient's initials, surname and police regimental number.

Constable Marron had been left severely disabled and unable to walk or speak after contracting a mosquito-borne virus while stationed at Balgo in 2011.

The oldest Police Star was awarded to the family of Constable Patrick Hackett, who was murdered in 1884.
