It happened at the Tesco store on Canal Road in February.

Two men went up to the black Volkswagen Tiguan where the woman in her 20s was sitting in and told her to get out.

The woman struggled with the men and they ran off towards the Shipley Airedale Road, leaving the woman with minor injuries.

The animal was found with severe burns running from its eyes to the tip of its nose.

Housebuilder Gladman has applied for permission for a new housing estate off Tadcaster Road, north of Copmanthorpe.

A planning statement says that as the land is included in the draft Local Plan, which is due to be submitted to a government planning inspector soon, this early application should "help the council to immediately address the chronic shortage in housing land."

Copmanthorpe's city councillor, David Carr, said the site had the advantage of being surrounded by hard physical boundaries - the road and railway - which would "stop development spilling out on to surrounding land."

Hooray, but...

As the guys in the know say, plan ahead!

The annual Harrogate Spring Flower Show starts this morning.

Thousands of visitors are expected at the Great Yorkshire Showground over the next four days.

It's one of the country's biggest and most prestigious gardening events.

And, judging by this picture, it's a good place to put your feet up for a few minutes (but not on the displays!)

There are 11 miles of standing traffic and delays of about one hour on the M62 eastbound after an accident - which closed two lanes - and now a broken down lorry, which has also closed two lanes.

Both happened between J26, J27 and J28, meaning that many commuters have been caught up in the delays.

Highways England say things won't get back to normal until at least 10:45 this morning.

Legendary singer Kate Bush is contributing to a monument to the Bronte sisters on the Yorkshire moors.

It's 40 years now since she sang her hit Wuthering Heights, which was inspired by Emily Bronte's only novel.

In a rare public work, the singer has written an inscription for a stone that will be placed near the Brontes' home in Haworth.

Bush said being asked to pen a passage about Emily was "an honour and, in a way, a chance to say thank you to her".

She's one of four artists who have written messages about the sisters.

Poet laureate Carol Ann Duffy, has crafted a passage for a stone dedicated to Charlotte Bronte, fellow poet Jackie Kay, has created a tribute to Anne, and the fourth inscription, by author Jeanette Winterson, will reflect on the Bronte legacy as a whole.

The four stones will form a trail between the Bronte family home in Haworth and the sisters' birthplace seven miles away in Thornton.

A pony being cared for after being subjected to a suspected acid attack will hopefully recover from what are described as "horrendous injuries", staff at a North Yorkshire horse hospital say.

The pony was found dumped in a yard in Chesterfield with serious injuries to its head and face and is now being treated at the Rainbow Equine hospital in Malton.

The animal, thought to be about eight months old, was injured and "riddled with parasites" when it was taken to the hospital.

Vet David Rendle, who's praised the male foal as a "plucky little thing", says its injuries looked like "someone had thrown a chemical substance into its face".

A day of sunshine and showers across Yorkshire.

Watch my full forecast here:

Neil Robertson didn't live up to his nickname and was more damp than thunderous during his 10-5 Snooker World Championship defeat to Robert Milkins in Sheffield.

It'll be a loss that's hard to swallow for the Australian, having tasted the glory of winning the world title at The Crucible in 2010.

The Australian said he'd been having trouble with the tip of his cue which had to be replaced.

Elsehwere, former title winners John Higgins and Mark Williams are both through to the 2nd round.

Experts in Leeds say a worrying number of people hold misleading views about what causes cancer.

Research conducted by the University of Leeds showed one in five people thought microwave ovens can cause cancer.

It also revealed that 15% believed drinking from a plastic bottle is a risk and two in five imagined stress to be a possible cause.

A third of those spoken to believed living near an electricity power line is a cancer risk.

Dr Sam Smith, from Leeds University, says the research showed "a high level of endorsement of cancer myths which have no scientific basis".

It happened on Tuesday and involved men claiming to be from Scotland Yard's Fraud Squad.

The fake police officers called a man in his 80s and told him they suspected his bank account was being targeted by Romanian criminals.

The fraudsters kept the man on the phone for two hours while he went to his bank to withdraw £3,000, telling him they needed to analyse it to see if it contained any counterfeit money.

Later the same day, a woman, also in her 80s, was called by men posing as police who asked her to withdraw £17,000.

The bank became suspicious and called North Yorkshire Police.

Here's something you don't see every day - a hazy sunrise over Yorkshire seen from exactly 1,514ft up in the air.

The crew of West Yorkshire Police's helicopter have a serious job to do, but they do get some good views while they're doing it:

Police in Sheffield investigating a shooting in Walkley last week are continuing to appeal for information.

Local residents reported hearing rapid gunfire on Bransby Street on the evening of Wednesday 18 April and two houses were damaged in the incident.

One woman said: "I heard what sounded like multiple gunshots in quick succession, then I heard something smashing, like a window, and then a car driving off."

Another woman said it sounded like something "from a video game".

Anyone with information about the incident is being asked to contact police.
