Jamie Lawson, 28, of Bayswater Grove in Harehills, was charged with conspiracy to pervert the course of justice in relation to a "cash-for-crash" trial in 2014.

Four men were jailed for offences including the manslaughter of an 88-year-old woman. 

Mr Lawson is due to appear at Leeds Magistrates' Court later.

Betty Laird died in hospital after the car she was travelling in was hit by a VW Passat on Old Lane in Beeston near Leeds in September 2014, in a staged "crash-for-cash" collision.

When cyclists ride through Barnsley on day three of the Tour de Yorkshire, you can be sure the overhead television cameras, showing the county in all its glory, will have no problem picking out this a giant piece of land art.

'In Gear' was created by the Landmark Collective with the help of local volunteers and farmers. 

It was commissioned by Barnsley Council to celebrate the third Tour de Yorkshire Cycle Race and can be seen on Thurgoland Bank near Penistone.

At approximately 150m in length, Barnsley Council has described it as the "largest piece of land art ever seen in Barnsley."

From today, one of York's busiest streets is closed to traffic for a fortnight. 

Gillygate is being dug up to allow access to a water pipe that was laid down over a century ago. 

It's back to school day today for many pupils in Yorkshire - perhaps whoever was responsible for this sign at Yorkshire Water might need a lesson to brush up their spelling skills:

I've spoken to Yorkshire Water. They offer "apologies for the mistake" and say they will change the sign.

It's just days now until the start of this year's Tour de Yorkshire. 

Thousands of people are expected to descend on Yorkshire to watch the teams battle it out up the gruelling climbs and the break-neck sprints. 

The start of day two is a special day for the North Yorkshire town of Tadcaster, when racers ride over the newly reopened Tadcaster Bridge. 

The town was cut in two when the listed 18th Century bridge over the River Wharfe partially collapsed as a result of flooding in 2015.  

As you can see, the town is really getting behind the event - bunting is already being strewn copiously and the streets are awash with blue and yellow.

It's goodbye to spring for a while as it turns colder with wintry showers by evening, falling as snow above 300m later. 

Here's my full forecast:

How would you like to take a tour of the inside of the former Bradford Odeon, where the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Buddy Holly all played?

It's currently under threat of demolition and earlier this year the council warned it could be bulldozed if work on its restoration does not start soon.  

BBC Radio Leeds has been given a tour of the building and now you can too:

A Barnsley teenager is making videos to help sufferers of anxiety and depression. 

Josh Adams is just 16-years-old and says his life has been badly affected by anxiety. 

It's cost him a college course, but now he says he's determined to help other young people.

Here are some of the stories making the news across Yorkshire so far this morning:      

• The leader of the Women's Equality Party says she's to stand against Shipley Conservative MP and Male rights advocate, Philip Davies, in the election
• An attempt is being made to fund a legal challenge to stop Scarborough's former Futurist theatre from being bulldozed
• The second phase of the £70m transformation of  Barnsley town centre gets underway

An attempt is being made to fund a legal challenge to stop Scarborough's former Futurist Theatre from being bulldozed. 

It comes as a conference about the importance of sea-side resorts is held in the town today.

Plans to demolish the 1920s theatre have been approved.

Scarborough Borough councillors voted 22 to 21 in favour of spending £4m to knock it down earlier this year.

A new attraction is planned for the site, but campaigners are trying to raise £10,000 to pay for a judicial review. 

Acts to have appeared at the 2,000-seat venue over the years include The Beatles, Shirley Bassey and Ken Dodd.
