Profile[]
Sun Hill was PC Abe Lyttelton's third posting in three and a half years. Senior officers attributed it to the difficulty of being a "minority within a minority" and indeed they were right - Lyttleton was Sun Hill's first black policeman and he had a lot of eyes on him.
The relief were openly welcoming, but he was given a hard time by fellow newcomer Pete Muswell who believed the inclusion of ethnic minorities in the Met was a mistake, and promptly christened him 'Snowball'. Lyttelton rose above Muswell's repeated racist taunts and proved such a capable officer that he even won his tormentor's grudging respect.
In 1986, Lyttleton was on duty with June Ackland when they were called to an incident involving a man who threw tiles off a roof after he did not get paid. Abe revealed that he had vertigo and he does not like heights. He faced his biggest fear when he climbed on to the roof and was despite being scared, he was able to get the man down.
Lyttleton didn't last long at Sun Hill however, transferring only after a 3 month stint.
