Calls have been made to ban horses from Exmouth seafront.

The town council has backed proposals that would restrict the times when the animals could use the beach.

Under the proposals, horses would be banned from using the beach between 10:00 and 18:00.

There are currently no restrictions on riders using any beach in east Devon.

The ban was suggested after a waterfront working party received "one or two" complaints of horses "getting in the way" of dog walkers and beachgoers.

Police have issued an appeal to find a registered sex offender.

Stephen Gadd, 51, was required to attend Bournemouth Police Station on 2 April - but failed to show up.

Det Sgt Darren Moores said it was known Mr Gadd often sleeps rough and has connections to Bournemouth, Poole and Weymouth in Dorset, as well as Brockenhurst in Hampshire and Paignton and Exeter in Devon.

He added: “Although we have no information to suggest he is an immediate danger to the public, I would ask that anyone who sees Stephen does not approach him, but contacts Dorset Police on 999."

The owner of Truro City Football Club has denied being responsible for outstanding wages and unpaid redundancy agreements to former employees of a newspaper he used to own.

Peter Masters sold the View From newspapers, which covered areas such as Axminster, Honiton and Seaton, in January.

Now 27 workers are taking their case to an employment tribunal, claiming an estimated £250,000, which they say they are owed after losing their jobs.

But Mr Masters says the responsibility for that money lies with the person he sold the company to.

"The reality is that when the business got transferred over everyone got paid," he said. "If he hasn't paid any wages or anything after when he took it over, that's a matter for him.

"They were not in my employment."

He sold the company to Duncan Williams who told the BBC he bought it in good faith and "remains very pleased with the purchase of the intellectual property rights of these regional media brands."

Tributes have been paid to a man who died after being run over on the A30 in Cornwall last month.

Joseph Nickless, from Perranporth, was fatally injured in the accident near Scorrier in the early hours of Saturday 19 May.

His family described him as a "polite, engaging and genuinely happy person" who was an "absolute delight" to be around".

"Everyone who interacted with Joe, no matter how much, will feel a devastating loss now that he is no longer with us.

"Joe was easily the best version of all of us, be it as a son, a brother and a friend.”

Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the collision and are appealing for witnesses.

They would also like to speak to the driver of an agricultural tractor which was on the A30 eastbound between Avers roundabout and Chiverton Cross shortly before the accident.

Drivers are being asked to avoid Mary Arches Street in Exeter, which has been closed due to a medical incident.
