A man who was killed during an outbreak of violence in a supermarket in Wymondham has been described as a "warm and caring soul".

Sue Rogers, the mother of 26-year-old Nick Rogers, says "words cannot describe the overwhelming gut-wrenching sadness and anger" the family is feeling at his loss.

"We had a strong bond and while Nick didn't always get things right, he so desperately wanted to change his life for the better.

Paying tribute to her son, she added: "I hope that by donating your organs, the lives of others have been saved and you will live on with them.

"We hope they all lead a full life, something which was cruelly taken so suddenly from you. Night night, my beautiful special boy."

Nick's brother and sister, Cameron and Hope Steadman, also paid tribute to their brother.

"I miss you so much, wish you were still here,” said Cameron. "I regret not saying how much I appreciated and loved you.

"It’s so sad to see you go at a time you started to take the reins on your life and steer on a good course. I’ll continue to remember the good time and make you proud.”

Hope said: "It’s tough to know you won’t be around, to never see me get married, be an uncle and see my children grow up.

"It’s hard to believe it’s real – I still expect to see you come walking in the house and ask if I’m alright. Love and miss you so much, please watch over me and keep me safe."

Nick's stepfather Andrew Steadman said words could not describe the "pain and heartbreak" the family were going through.

"Behind the typical young lad bravado, Nick was a warm and caring soul and would always help others where and when he could. His loss will leave a huge void in our lives."

Around 40,000 speedway fans are expected to attend this weekend's British Grand Prix in Cardiff.

The leader of the series at the moment is Jason Doyle, external, an Australian who now lives in Norfolk, but rides for Swindon, as well as clubs in Poland, Denmark and Sweden.

"There's no pressure at all, we've still got six more Grand Prix." Doyle told The Speedway Show on BBC Radio Norfolk.

"After getting injured so close to the end of last season, we've got to enjoy ourselves this year."

This weekend marks a year since a swimmer died after getting caught in a rip current at Sea Palling.

Leszek Puchala, 52, who lived in Poland, was on holiday in Norfolk visiting family. He and another family member were pulled unconscious from the water. Beachgoers initially thought the men were enjoying themselves and shouting out in Polish, but rushed in to help when they realised they were in danger.

Earlier this week the council announced it would be using social media to make people aware of the dangers of the sea - they'll be written in Polish as well as English.

"One tragedy is always one tragedy too many," said council leader Tom Fitzpatrick.

"No matter how safe we think we are, there's always room for improvement.

"We're pushing messages on social media, making sure people can go on our beaches and be safe, asking them to swim between the red and yellow flags and obey the signs."

More than 60 tickets were issued in a week-long campaign to catch motorists who use their mobiles when at the wheel.

Operation Ringtone saw police officers on patrol in marked and unmarked vehicles, all fitted with cameras to get evidence. In total 67 tickets were issued.

Driving while using a mobile phone is one of the "fatal four" offences, alongside speeding, drink/drug driving and not wearing a seatbelt.

Norfolk Police used the campaign to highlight that members of the public can submit dashcam footage to help in the fight against those breaking the law.

Ch Insp Kris Barnard says they hope having extra eyes on the road will help prevent offences and make people think twice about touching their mobile devices.

A packed audience at the Theatre Royal in Norwich, external was left disappointed last night after a production of Jane Eyre was cancelled at short notice.

The performance of the Charlotte Bronte classic is a collaboration between the National Theatre and Bristol Old Vic, and has been on a run at the theatre since Monday.

Audience members told BBC Radio Norfolk that 20 minutes after the show was due to begin they were informed it wouldn't go ahead because of "an incident".

A spokesman for the Theatre Royal tells us the decision was taken when a member of the acting company "had a flare-up of a pre-existing tendon of the foot", adding that this occurred moments before curtain-up, and "due to the physical nature of the production it was decided, for this reason only, it wasn't possible for them to perform".

The theatre has apologised to those who had paid to go to last night's performance, offering them the chance to exchange their tickets for another performance or full refund.

The rest of the performance this week will go ahead as scheduled.

The inquiry into the attempted abduction of a serviceman near RAF Marham is no longer being treated as an active investigation by police.

As reported in the Eastern Daily Press, external, any new information that comes to light will be reviewed and acted on accordingly.

An investigation began after a married serviceman, in his late 20s, was approached by two men while out jogging on 20 July last year.

He said he was threatened with a knife and attempts were made to grab him. The victim, who was not in uniform, fought them off and escaped unharmed.

At the time, police said they couldn't "discount terrorism" as the motive for the "attempted kidnap" and there was heightened security around the west Norfolk base.

In the first five months of the investigation they'd received around 500 calls. In December, they moved away from the theory the incident was terror-related, and were revisiting other previously-considered motives.

To date, the inquiry has cost in the region of £113,000.

In a statement, Det Insp Neil Stewart says they've analysed the 500 calls, reviewed hours of CCTV footage and carried out automatic number plate recognition inquiries which have revealed no significant leads.

The statement continues by saying all relevant inquiries have been exhausted, and the work carried out by the team has been very productive, particularly in identifying the most important witnesses captured on CCTV.

The two men accused of murdering a man at a Wymondham supermarket have appeared in court.

Nick Rogers, 26, died on Tuesday. He'd been involved in a fight at the Morrisons store on Norwich Road the night before.

John Monk, 43, and his 19-year-old nephew Lee Monk, who are both from Wymondham, appeared at Norwich Crown Court this morning.

They didn't enter any pleas and were remanded in custody ahead of their next appearance in August.

Three boats which got into trouble when hit by heavy squalls had to be rescued by Wells Lifeboat yesterday.

The first call was to the Sea Mist cabin cruiser. One of its two engines had overheated and had to be shut down, making it difficult to manouvre as skipper Richard Comrie tried to cross the bar into Wells harbour.

They were between 10-15 miles off the north Norfolk harbour when they radioed for help, and with sea washing over the boat they nearly lost their dinghy.

The second rescue was of an elderly couple. Their 65ft barge was caught in heavy seas off Salthouses, and was making little progress because of the heavy westerly wind.

The third vessel, a 22ft yacht, suffered engine and communications failure, but managed to raise the alarm on a mobile before it stopped working. She was reported to be 10 miles north of Wells and 10 miles east of Skegness.

It was a race against the ebbing tide to get her over the bar while there was still enough depth of water.

Lifeboat spokesman John Mitchell says it was "touch and go".

While the coroner ruled out the possibility that two men who died in an industrial explosion were unlawfully killed, their families say they believe the deaths were preventable.

Barry Joy and Daniel Timbers died in what was described as a fireball when a 205-litre barrel of industrial solvent caught fire and exploded in their paint spraying booth at Harford Attachments in Norwich, two years ago.

Daniel Timbers' father Nick should have been working in the booth that morning but had a bad back, so his son stood in for him.

Speaking after the inquest into their deaths ended yesterday, Daniel's brother Ash Timbers (pictured, with his father Nick in background) said his brother was a "great son, brother, partner".

"Most of all he was a brilliant dad to his son. Not only has Dan been robbed of seeing his son grow up, his son has been robbed of a great dad who put all of his efforts into his son," he added.

Rebecca Spruce spoke on behalf of Barry Joy's family, and said they hoped that the Health & Safety Executive's ongoing investigation would show how seriously safety should be taken in the workplace.

A statement from Harford Attachments said the deaths were a matter of profound regret.

The company's lawyer, James Jevon, said Barry and Daniel were well-regarded and much-liked work colleagues and friends and their loss had been keenly felt.

A Health and Safety Executive (HSE) investigation is continuing into the deaths of two men in a factory explosion two years ago.

Paint sprayers Barry Joy, 56, and Daniel Timbers, 28, died at Harford Attachments in Norwich in what was described as a "fierce fire".
