That's it from me for today, thanks for checking in, we'll do it all again tomorrow from 08:00.

Before I go, let's look back at five things we didn't know this morning when we woke up:

1. Every time you have a shower, just think about the dolphins.
2. If you can't lead your horse to water, grab the hosepipe.
3. Maybe the people who make TV equipment should not make the microphones look like rabbits.
4. We all love a good festival, but the traffic can do one.
5. Busy important person, but with an urge for the barge-living lifestyle? No fear, experience it in 30 seconds here!

See you tomorrow!

I've just spoken to West Yorkshire Police about the incident on Leeds' Inner Ring Road.

They say that a man has been arrested after he was seen walking near one of the bridges over the A58(M).

The road has reopened and traffic should be returning to normal soon.

Oh dear, this could cause some major problems for the evening rush hour.

Not sure why it's closed, I'll look into it and see what I find.

There's a lot of traffic on the A1(M) this afternoon towards the Leeds Festival.

There was an earlier accident that has had a knock-on effect, but it could also be the number of people travelling to the site this afternoon. 

And here's proof that at least half of that statement is correct...

A man was robbed at knifepoint in Huddersfield last night.

It happened on Queens Mill Road in Newsome just after 23:20 as a man was walking along the road. He was approached by two men, one of whom grabbed him from behind and pulled him over, the other demanded money from the victim and took his mobile phone.　

If you saw anything, please call the police on 101.

Dog walkers are being urged to keep their dogs on a lead while walking near livestock in the countryside. 

One farmer on Ilkley Moor has suffered as many as eight attacks on his sheep this year alone. Bradford council is warning that even if a sheep is not physically harmed, the stress induced by a chase can lead to serious health problems.

They also warn that farmers and landowners are at liberty to shoot loose dogs among their livestock.

Just remember to expect extra traffic around the Leeds Festival at Bramham from today.
