He was homeless at the time of his death and was sleeping in the building along with other homeless drug addicts including Hendry.

Hendry inflicted 57 "horrific" injuries on Mr Ward over the disappearance of two bags of heroin.

The injuries, the majority of which were to Mr Ward's head, resulted in his death.

Humberside Police says the taser is a vital tool to help combat rising violent crime in East Yorkshire and northern Lincolnshire.

Insp Gary Jackson, who oversees taser training, says it is a "visual deterrent" which is "extremely effective in calming a person down and diffusing and gaining control of a situation" without even being used.

Four people have been arrested during protests outside a Lincolnshire haulage firm.

The three women and a man are being held under suspicion of public order offences.

The protest, outside S Lion and Sons in Skellingthorpe, is part of a national day of action against fracking and new gas industries.

Activists claim the firm is part of the supply chain for the fracking industry, however the company says it has nothing to do with fracking.

A council tax rise of £60 per household in Lincolnshire's been approved by councillors.

This is £61 on top of what the county council already takes.

The Conservative administration says it needs to convince the government to give it more funding if it's to avoid further large rises in future years.

Labour argues the council has more than £200m in reserves lying in 100 bank accounts.

This tax rise, together with others planned by the police and district councils, will add about 90-pounds to Band D bills, taking those bills to about £1,800 a year.
