You might remember that yesterday we mentioned a community cafe in York had been burgled, with a safe raided and cash stolen from the till.

A crowdfunding campaign has now been launched to raise £1,000 the pay-as-you-feel Chill Cafe in Acomb.

Organisers behind the crowdfunding bid say the burglary's caused "devastation" for the team working there who work "tirelessly" in the local community.

A woman in her 20s, from York, has been arrested on suspicion of burglary, possessing drugs, and assaulting a police officer.
