Officers were called to the Tesco store on Richmonshire Walk at about 14:30 on Saturday, to reports a group of "Middle Eastern men had chased some young girls into the store" and security staff were called to intervene.

Officers say they've talked to those involved and "viewed clear CCTV footage which supports a version of events that states the girls started taking photos of the men who asked them to stop".

North Yorkshire Police say: "We're aware of what could be described as inflammatory comments on social media, and want to reassure people the incident is not as reported."

They are appealing to members of the public to stay calm and to "think carefully and not post any racist, inflammatory or antagonistic comments."

Dom Creed from Silsden, was with his family and other passengers travelling on a coach organised by airline Jet2 between Manchester and Leeds airports.

Mr Creed said the vehicle veered across lanes on the M62 motorway.

About 50 passengers were on the coach, which picked up travellers from a flight from Lanzarote on Thursday that had been diverted to Manchester Airport due to poor weather.

Mr Creed said he was sitting directly behind the coach driver with his son when he noticed the "driver's eyes were closed".

"I automatically dropped forward and shouted 'are you asleep, are you asleep?'," said Mr Creed.

West Yorkshire Police said it was "making inquiries into reports of a road-related offence".

The government says that won't cause a supply risk. But the Prospect Union has raised concerns.

There was disappointment for steam enthusiasts over the weekend when the new main line locomotive Tornado broke down.

The run from London to York was the first chance for it to pull passengers at 90mph along the East Coast Main Line.

It did briefly reach its new top speed before it was forced to stop.

It arrived in York several hours late after being hauled by a diesel engine.

Mark Allatt of the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust described the breakdown as "frustrating and disappointing".
