  5. Mother and son fleeced elderly with vacuum servicing scam

    A mother and son have been sent to jail today for fleecing mainly elderly people out of thousands of pounds for servicing their vacuum cleaners.

    Dyson Vacuum

    Thomas Scoffin, 31 from Park Avenue in Leeds was the sole director of Leeds-based Excel Servicing was sentenced to seven years imprisonment.

    His mother Linda Scoffin, 61 from Hall Drive in Lincoln who helped him run the business, was sentenced to three years.

    The pair had falsely claimed to represent the Dyson firm and then convinced people that their vacuum needed servicing, in some cases damaging a perfectly functioning model.

    Customers were often charged between £50 and £200 to service the cleaners, and charged £40 for a new filter which were only worth between £2 and £5.

  6. 'Full investigation' into hit spectators at Scarborough bike races

    In both accidents two motorcyclists crashed into the crowds who were watching.

    They say they will fully investigate the circumstances of these incidents in conjunction with the circuit and organisers.

  7. Leeds United: Are Championship leaders finally set for Premier League return?

    Phil McNulty

    BBC Sport chief football writer

    As Leeds United's supporters celebrated at the traditional gathering place of The Old Peacock just a short walk from Elland Road, one of English football's institutions had taken another small step on the long road to recovery.

    Leeds United

    A 3-2 win over Ipswich - a game almost designed to play on nerves frayed by 15 years of trauma - kept Leeds top of the Championship on goal difference going into Tuesday's game at third-placed Cardiff.

    The revival under their latest manager, Thomas Christiansen, had brought 34,002 to the famous stadium, the highest of the season and a third successive league attendance in excess of 30,000.

    Christiansen, the 44-year-old Danish-born former Spain international, had Leeds fans heading to Wikipedia for information when he succeeded Garry Monk.

    He is the symbol of the relative calm that has suddenly descended on this part of Yorkshire after the years of madness that followed David O'Leary's sacking in June 2002.

    BBC Local Live, Sheffield

    Five dog owners from Sheffield have been nipped in the pocket because their dogs were not microchipped.

    Dog and microchip

    They were each fined at Sheffield Magistrates' Court for not ensuring their animals had microchips with up-to-date information about their pets, something that's legally required.

    Owners can only be excused if they have a veterinary certificate stating this should not happen due to reasons relating to the animal’s health.

    The maximum fine is £500 in each case.

    Quote Message: We are pleased that the courts have taken a firm stance on microchipping of dogs. It is a pity that these dog owners chose not to microchip their pet despite the efforts of our staff” from Bryan Lodge Councillor
