Sgt Tom Smith, of the Joint Operations Roads Policing Unit, said: "We are currently supporting her family and our thoughts are with them at this difficult time.

"We are appealing for anyone who may have witnessed this incident to please come forward."

Luton Council says it is consulting with residents about introducing parking permits.

Watford confirm the signing of Brazil Under-20 international Richarlison after he is granted a work permit.

Truro City boss Lee Hodges says striker Andrew Neal can emulate Isaac Vassell and play in the English Football League.

After both securing wins on the opening day of the league season, Luton Town and Ipswich Town have an intriguing League Cup tie at Kenilworth Road tonight.

Ipswich had a 1-0 victory over Harry Redknapp's Birmingham City on Saturday, but manager Mick McCarthy has noted Luton's 8-2 win over Yeovil.

McCarthy says he's been a long-time admirer of Luton manager Nathan Jones.

"They play a diamond... he gets them playing well... and they've started great, so it'll be a really tough game for us, but it would be nice to have back-to-back wins."

He said he's not planning on making wholesale changes to the starting line-up, but although new signing Martyn Waghorn should be available, Andre Dozzell is out injured.

Cars left in roads near Luton Airport have been vandalised and daubed with graffiti, as residents complain their roads are being used by holidaymakers who won't pay to park at the airport.

I've been speaking to people who live on Hollybush Road, where a car has had its tyres let down, windows smashed and messages daubed on it.

One resident told me that cars have been left on the road for up to eight weeks before and that the local community is fed up.

The lady, who did not want to be named, said "There is somebody who does mark the vehicles regularly.

"It began with letting tyres down and bending windscreen wipers, but I noticed last week this car had its windows smashed, so I reported it to the police.

"I don't want that out the front of my house, and I don't want the owner to come back and think that I have done that.

"I don't like people parking here, but the one thing I wouldn't do is criminal damage to anybody's vehicle."

The resident told me she often warns people looking to park on the street that their vehicles could be vandalised.

She said the situation is "ridiculous" and is now becoming "dangerous".

Tonight Watford's Kyle Langford competes in the 800m final at the World Athletics Championships in London.

Langford qualified after finishing second in Sunday's semi-final.

You can watch his performance below:

Ahead of the final this evening, Langford's parents, Karen and Donald, have been sharing their excitement.

The family run The Meriden Fish Bar in Watford, which they closed over the weekend to go and watch their son perform at the Olympic Stadium.

Mum Karen said: "It was amazing, truly amazing.

"I was in pieces watching my little boy on a world stage in front of 60,000 people."

Dad Donald said he always knew his son had potential in the sport.

"When he was 13 running the school cross country races, I watched him and thought 'he's got something special'."

But it hasn't always been easy, with Donald explaining how the family have made sacrifices to see their son succeed.

"We've travelled all over the country, scrimped and scraped by to pay for physio and massage.

"It's been tough but worth ever penny."

You can watch Kyle Langford in the Men's 800m final at 21:35.
