Two men, aged 28 and 20, and an 18-year-old woman have been arrested in connection with the incident on suspicion of making an explosive device with intent to cause harm.

They are still being questioned by police this morning.

South Yorkshire Police say they do not believe there is a risk to the wider community.

Council leaders are trying to convince the government to let them make the big decisions, rather than in Westminster.

South Yorkshire is getting its own mayor.

Last week Communities Secretary, Sajid Javid, said he wasn't ruling out a deal for the "widest possible geography" for Yorkshire, but the Sheffield City Region Mayoral Elections must go ahead in May this year.

But he added he wants to see "concrete proposals" for a wider Yorkshire deal.

Matt Ineson said Church leaders failed to act when he told them, more than 20 years later, that he had been raped by a former Bradford vicar.

His lawyer David Greenwood said police were investigating but South Yorkshire Police would not comment.

The Church's national safeguarding team said it was investigating complaints.

Mr Ineson said the abuse began when, following a family breakdown at the age of 16, he was sent to stay with Trevor Devamanikkam (pictured) who at the time was vicar at St Aidan's Church.

Mr Devamanikkam, who later lived in Oxfordshire, was subsequently charged with child sex offences but killed himself in June before his case came to court.

The teenager's body was found concealed behind a sofa left on a pathway in Dinnington, near Rotherham last year.

She'd been stabbed 28 times.

Shea Peter Heeley, 19, of Doe Quarry Lane, Dinnington, pleaded guilty to murder, at Sheffield Crown Court last month.

It's a chilly start to the day with the risk of ice on untreated surfaces, especially towards the Pennines and mist and fog is reducing visibility this morning.

The mist and fog will lift through the morning,

It's not as cold as yesterday with a thaw of the lying snow as temperatures rise to 9 deg C.

Things appear to be running reasonably smoothly on Yorkshire's rail routes at the moment.

But because of the recent poor weather conditions across the north of England, disruption is being experienced on some routes, including Leeds to London, so it's worth checking.
