Baby Abduction

I headed to Barnsley this week on a very troubling story to do with an attempted abduction of a baby. Police are appealing for information after a man grabbed a baby from her mother's arms on a train in Worksop. Detectives investigating the attempted abduction of the baby have released a CCTV image of a man they say can help with their enquiries.

The story was on BBC Look North and the BBC News Channel...

Shin pads

A South Yorkshire football club has banned tiny shin pads after a teenage player suffered a double leg break. Penistone Church under 16s striker Alfie broke his tibia and fibular in a tackle during a recent match. The 15-year-old's shin pads, which were no bigger than a credit card, were similar to a size worn by some stars of the professional game.
