Episode The first cop on scene of the Bali Bombings: Glen McEwen Pt. 1
On October 12, 2002, then Australian Federal Police Acting Superintendent Glen McEwen was just 400 metres from Paddy's Bar by chance when the Bali Bombings happened. He ran toward the blast and became the first Aussie cop on scene.
In Part 1 of this interview, Gary sits down with Glen to hear what it was like inside those first chaotic hours, helping the injured, making the first call back to Australia to report mass Australian casualties, forming 'Team Australia' at the Consulate, and returning at first light to help secure the crime scene for the investigation that followed.
Glen also shares how his posting to Indonesia led him there, from infiltrating people-smuggling networks to his earlier work on the massive 397kg Port Macquarie seizure in 1998.
