Gotta tell you a story: Dennis Foley

Uncle Dennis Foley doesn’t have many good stories about the police, but when he and some underage mates were drinking at Chester Hill pub one day in the 1960’s and it was raided, they took off on their motorbikes. They were chased by the 21st flying squad but were pulled up by a cop named Bob Crawford who, knowing they were good kids, hid them and the 21st never got them.
