Cam Woolley, the former O.P.P officer-turned-reporter is calling it quits next month after 13 years on CP24. I remember the news director of City TV once tried to hire him, but he wasn't ready to leave the force back then. When he did, he found a home at 24.
You may remember that Woolley ran into trouble with the brass over his colorful traffic blitz hits while still in uniform. His famous phrase about 'Fred Flintstone' cars (with the bottom panel near the accelerator rotted away) was always a highlight.
He also has a side business collecting vintage police and ambulance vehicles, which are rented out to movie companies.

They've now posted his retirement announcement on CP24.com.

Bill is Hap Parnaby's son. One of three I believe.

Used to have him on my Guys Garage Saturday afternoon radio show on MOJO 640 for years when he was a cop during every long weekend OPP blitz....we jokingly called him the media whore cause he loved being on TV and radio so much...didn't surprise me when he landed the reporter gig post-cop retirement...he also had a great side gig renting out movie cop cars, ambulances, etc...good guy...
