No W84032n Sgt Paul Charles Stone; Dog Unit Pietermaritzburg: (1961-1985 R.i.p.)
On the night of April 3–4, 1985, Sgt Paul Stone and Constable Zondi responded to a reported burglary at Premier Foods. In the brave pursuit of a suspect, Paul was fatally wounded by a stab to the neck. His selfless actions in that moment exemplified the highest ideals of police service: courage and unwavering commitment to community safety. Though his grave now rests in the neglected C-Section of Mountain Rise Cemetery, Sergeant Stone’s memory endures in the hearts of colleagues and citizens alike. May this tribute inspire renewed care for his resting place and ensure that his sacrifice remains a lasting testament to duty, loyalty, and love.
