The Police Officer stopped Rob Donovan's car for having a faulty brake light one day in September 2014. Rob, accompanied by Ken Barlow, was in a controlled panic as he had only a short time before stored in the boot the iron bar that he had used to kill Tina McIntyre some two months before. Under a great deal of strain, he made abusive comments to the officer about him bothering them instead of real criminals but the officer had checked Rob's records and made a pointed comment that nothing was more real than armed robbery (an offence for which Rob had served time in prison).

Ken explained that they were on their way to visit a seriously ill Peter Barlow in hospital. The officer offered his sympathies, gave Rob official notice to have the light fixed in fourteen days and left the two men alone.
