Police are appealing for help in finding missing 41-year-old Mark Crossland from Barnsley.

He was last seen at 08:40 this morning leaving his workplace on Huddersfield Road in Darton on foot.

Mark is described as white, around 5ft 11ins, with short mousey brown hair. He was last seen wearing a red polo shirt with Premdor written on it, hi-vis jacket, combat trousers and possibly wearing safety boots.

The good news is that the A1237 has re-opened.

The bad news is that it's going to be busy as traffic gets back to normal.

Almost 3,000 Huddersfield Town fans can say for years to come: "I was there."

The Terriers played their first ever match in the Premier League on Saturday, marking the occasion with an impressive 3-0 win away to Crystal Palace.

That scoreline saw Town top the table - albeit for a matter of hours - leading record signing Steve Mounié to say he would "take a picture of the Premier League table."

Many supporters were taking plenty of pictures of their own, but these two went one step further:

He was arrested on suspicion of driving with no insurance, failing to stop, dangerous driving and drug driving.

He was also arrested on suspicion of burglary for an offence in West Yorkshire.

The 18-year-old female passenger was also arrested on suspicion of burglary for the offence in West Yorkshire.

Both remain in custody while enquiries continue.

Have you seen this video? It shows Joe Davies propose to his girlfriend Erika in Sheffield's Meadowhall shopping centre and has so far been seen more than one million times.

If you haven't seen it yet, take a look at this choreographed routine. And, yes, Erika did say "yes"!:

Speaking to BBC Radio Sheffield this morning, Joe said he's planning something to top the Meadowhall dance routing at their wedding in a couple of years time.

No pressure...

Congratulations to Joe and Erika.

If, like me, you looked up to the night sky on Saturday evening hoping to witness the Perseid meteor shower but saw nothing, perhaps these pics will help assuage your disappointment.

Thanks to Simon Scott and Nicole Carr for sending in their snaps of meteors shooting over Scarborough's North Bay early yesterday morning.

The Perseid meteor shower gave stargazers the opportunity to spot dozens of shooting stars in the sky.

Meteors are small fragments of debris and dust that enter the atmosphere at high speed, meaning they combust and produce a stream of light which can be seen trailing behind them.

Leeds United head coach Thomas Christiansen says striker Chris Wood is staying at Elland Road.

United are understood to have received several offers upwards of £12m for last season's top scorer.

Speaking after his side's 0-0 draw against Preston on Saturday, Christiansen told BBC Radio Leeds: "This is my impression and as coach, I want him to stay. We will see, but why should he go?"

Despite those words from the boss, fans are nothing if not thorough when it comes to football's rumour mill.

The club posted this group photo from training this morning, leading to a hasty game of "Where's Wood?"* on social media:(*We're pretty sure he's at the back, on the right.)

Network Rail is warning trains from North Yorkshire towards London will be busier than normal across the Bank Holiday weekend (26/27 Aug).

Engineering work is taking place on the West Coast Main Line.

It means services on the East Coast Main Line, particularly from York, are expected to be extremely busy.

The Ebor Festival is taking place at York Racecourse across that weekend, and there's also the Leeds Festival near Tadcaster.

There's a peahen on the loose in Oughtibridge!

It's in the back garden of a house on Church Street, and has a tag on its foot, so it could belong to someone.

Tara, whose garden it is, says it's been there all morning, and her 18-month-old daughter loves it.

Tara's rung local farms and animal charities, but to no avail.

Anyone lost one? Get in touch and we can point you in the right direction.

The latest weapon in the fight to improve York's air quality is being wheeled out today.

The city's beginning a month-long trial of a new type of bus which produces zero emissions.

York's had electric buses for years, but the Metrodecker EV will become the city's first electric double-decker, eventually being one of three in a fleet of 14 electric park and ride buses.

The vehicle carries 99 passengers almost 150 miles on a single, overnight charge, but it's hoped this can be increased to 200 miles soon.

A 22-year-old man from Sheffield has been charged with seven offences under the Terrorism Act.

Abdulrahman Kaabar, of Martin Street, was arrested on 10 August and has been charged with three offences of possessing a record of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism.

He has also been charged with four offences of disseminating terrorist publications under Section 2 of the Terrorism Act 2006.

He will appear before Westminster Magistrates' Court later today.

A senior Cleveland Police officer says that Sheffield United fans were to blame for violence that broke out after Saturday's game against Middlesbrough at the Riverside, which injured children as young as 10.

Assistant Chief Constable of Cleveland Police, Jason Harwin, was on duty at the Riverside and says the violence involving over 200 people was some of the worst he's seen in his 25-year career.

Six people have so far been arrested and one officer was taken to hospital.

Richard Ball, 47, from Sheffield will appear at Teesside Magistrates Court on 8 September, after being charged with a public order offence.

A 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession of a class A drug and was released with no further police action.

Two men, aged 20 and 58, were cautioned for pitch invasion and two men, aged 35 and 52, were arrested on suspicion of affray and were released under investigation.

Lawyers representing the family of murdered Leeds school teacher Ann Maguire say they remain "committed to finding out the truth" about what happened on the day she was killed.

Today a legal challenge from her family, aimed at allowing pupils who witnessed the teacher being stabbed being called to give evidence, failed in the High Court.

Dismissing the claim for judicial review, the judge said: "I have much sympathy for the claimants, and I fully understand their reasons for wishing to pursue this line of inquiry.

"For the reasons I have given, however, I am unable to accept the submission that the assistant coroner reached a decision which was so seriously flawed as to be unreasonable."

A solicitor representing the family said they will assess their options following this latest ruling:

Things are not at all what they seem at a public art exhibtion in North Yorkshire's Knaresborough.

Some of the pieces in the Feva exhibition are there to fool people.

The car, a silver Ford Focus, crashed on Beeches Bank, near Norfolk Heritage Park, before being driven onto Park Grange Road, where it sat in the middle of the road yesterday.

No-one was hurt in the incident and the driver is believed to have made off from the scene towards the park, police say.

Stagecoach says the tram route was blocked for about 35 minutes.

Pupils who witnessed their teacher being stabbed to death in Leeds will not have to give evidence at the inquest into her death.

Ann Maguire (pictured), 61, was stabbed in the back by teenager Will Cornick at Corpus Christi Catholic College in 2014.

He was sentenced to life in prison.

Mrs Maguire's husband and children disagreed with the decision - taken by a coroner - not to call pupils who had contact with her murderer immediately before he killed her.

They took their challenge to the High Court, but the judge has now ruled that the teenagers' evidence will not be included in the inquest in November.

The Terriers went top after Saturday's win at Crystal Palace on the opening weekend of the season, though they were displaced at the top on Sunday by Manchester United.

Meanwhile, Town are staying tight-lipped about their attempts to bring Barnsley right-back Andy Yiadom to the club permanently.

Reports have suggested that negotiations to bring the player in as cover for skipper Tommy Smith had broken down, but Wagner refused to comment after the win against Crystal Palace.

A man lost three of his front teeth after being punched in the face by a teenager in York last week, police have revealed.

The attack happened in Huntington, near the bank of the River Foss off Church Lane, between 18:30 and 19:00 on Thursday 10 August when the victim was punched by a male youth.

Officers are particularly keen for information about the suspect, who's described as a white male, aged between 17-18, about 5ft 10ins tall, with short blond hair.

At the time of the assault, he is believed to have been wearing a cream-coloured top and was carrying a rucksack.
