That's the end of our live service for today. We'll be back from 07:00 on Monday with more news, sport, travel and weather updates from around the county.
In the meantime, here are five things we've learnt today about our county...
Officers were called to the Judge’s Lodging Hotel on Lendal at about 13:30 on Saturday 22 October, after reports a group of about 20 people was fighting in the grounds and in the street.
Detectives are appealing to any customers or members of the public who witnessed the incident, and to anyone who with video footage or still images of the disorder, to contact them.
No reports of anyone being injured during the disturbance have been received, police say.
The festival - now in it's eighth year - hosts theatre performances, art, films and its (in)famous Vampires Ball.
Originally devised as a means to show off Bram Stoker's undeniable influence on horror cinema and literature, the festival has grown into a celebration of all things dark and macabre.

Whitby, the literary birthplace of Dracula and the venue for a famous annual Goth festival, was the obvious choice to host the event.
Stoker himself visited Whitby in 1890, and it was in the local library that he first came across the name Dracula.

York has one of the highest mortality rates linked to asbestos-related illness in the country, new figures have revealed.

The city ranks in the top 6% of regions when it comes to deaths from mesothelioma - a cancer that affects the lining on the outer surface of the body's organs.
The study, conducted on behalf of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers, shows that just under seven in every 100,000 people die from the disease in York, compared to the national average of 4.51.
It's thought most of the cases come from York's industrial past including the rail carriageworks.
The mortality rate is expected to peak in 2018 due to the effects of more robust legislation and better safety practices.
Helmsley Walled Garden gets national recognition
Jim Addyman
BBC Local Live, York
Helmsley Walled Garden is one of the prime tourist spots for those of a horticultural bent, and now it's been nominated for a top award.
According to the paper, York's home to a veritable ghostly gang of "colourful spooks".
They including the wraith which used to haunt the Golden Fleece, the not-very-politically-correct Mad Alice and the Grey Lady who was allegedly bricked-up in what's now the Theatre Royal.
"Sit in the dress circle, it is said, and she will tickle your neck. I don’t know about you, but I’ll take the stalls," writes the Guardian's Steven Poole.
Clifford's Tower a 'precious place' - English Heritage
Jonathan Cowap
Presenter, BBC Radio York
Plans to overhaul one of North Yorkshire's most iconic buildings have been given the go-ahead in York.
English Heritage's proposals for Clifford's Tower include a controversial new visitor centre and a rooftop cafe.
Despite these concerns, Dr Jeremy Ashbee, from English Heritage, says he thinks the changes are necessary:
Traffic and travel: Delays continue on A1(M) at Selby Fork
This is due to an earlier accident involving three lorries and a spillage of paint thinner on the road.
A diversion's in operation - via the exit and entry slips at J42. Travel time through the area is about 25 minutes with congestion to J43, M1 (Hook Moor).
'Selby needs Yorkshire-wide help to get investment' - former MP
Georgey Spanswick
Presenter, BBC Radio York
This morning on BBC Radio York we've been focusing on Selby - as it's 40 years this weekend since the opening of the Selby Coalfield complex.
We've been looking at the impact its 2004 closure had - and getting a snapshot of how the town's doing now.
John Grogan is the former Labour MP for Selby and I asked him for his thoughts on the town's prospects:
Fast Show star slows it down for The Moonstone
Georgey Spanswick
Presenter, BBC Radio York
North Yorkshire's rapidly becoming the place to film movies and TV series, with Swallows and Amazons and Victoria both being filmed in the county recently.
The latest is the BBC's upcoming adaptation of Wilkie Collins classic The Moonstone.
It hits our TV screens on Monday and is described as the first ever detective novel, telling the tale of an Indian diamond that gets stolen - and the search for the person responsible.
BBC Radio York reporter Sarah Urwin was able to grab some time with the cast when the show was being filmed on location near Ripon.
John Thomson, more usually known for comic roles, spoke about his nervousness acting in a period drama:
Making North Yorkshire mental health-friendly
Nathan Turvey
BBC Radio York News
A new campaign starts today aimed at bringing down the number of people taking their own lives in York - and making North Yorkshire a mental health-friendly county.
A conference is taking place at the University of York where people affected by mental health problems are invited and is part of a campaign put together by local councils and police.
Insp Bill Scott is mental health development lead for the North Yorkshire force and says the aim is to build co-operation:
The plans have proved to be controversial and have attracted criticism and strong objections from some people in the city.

The Guildhall planning panel - which is made up local residents - stated they thought a proposed new visitor centre "looks like a public toilet, and will be used as one".
Want your own waterfall? Yours for a cool £1.5m - with pub attached
Jim Addyman
BBC Local Live, York
The country's highest single drop waterfall - which is right here in North Yorkshire - has been put up for sale with a guide value of £1.5m.

Hardraw Force, situated just north of the market town of Hawes in Wensleydale, together with the adjacent pub, the Green Dragon Inn, are to be sold by their current owner due to ill health.
Public viewing of Hardraw Force is rather unusual, as the visitor has to go through the bar of the pub to reach the falls.

The waterfall comprises a single drop of 100ft from a rocky overhang and although it used to be permitted, it is now prohibited to gain access behind the fall.
Hardraw Force was first formed during the Middle Carboniferous period, which was over 320 million years ago, when alternating layers of limestone, shale and sandstone, along with some thin coal and earth seams were laid down.
This was repeated about eight times and - added to glacial activity - led to the geologically unique Dales scenery known as the Yoredale Series.
The layered structure of the Yoredale Series is particularly conducive to forming waterfalls such as Hardraw Force and the nearby Aysgarth Falls.
