A man shattered a woman's skull in a "savage sexual and physical assault" and left her for dead near a children's play park in Leicester, a court has heard.

A jury was told Zakarya Etarghi brutally attacked a woman in her 50s and just hours later pleaded with friends to get him on a truck that would take him out of the country.

The woman was left with life-threatening injuries near the park off Cedar Road, Evington, just after 04:45am on August 3 last year, a trial at Leicester Crown Court heard today.

Prosecutor William Harbage QC called it a "brutal attack".

DNA profiles obtained from blood from pieces of paper and cigarette packets in the defendant's flat matched that of the woman, the prosecution said.

Jurors heard the 24-year-old had admitted he was present in the park that night but denies both charges of attempted murder and rape, saying someone else must have been responsible.

The court was told Etarghi, of no fixed address, sent "incriminating" messages to his friends after the alleged attack - including one which said: "I can just see it, today is the day I get nicked".

He had fled 60 miles away to Stoke-on-Trent and "laid low" for a fortnight until his arrest, the court heard.

The court heard Etarghi had said in a police interview that both he and his alleged victim had taken cocaine before the incident.

The trial continues.

Nottinghamshire will be left without a fire control room to handle emergency calls following a new merger with its counterpart in Derbyshire.

A new joint fire control is to be set up this year and would see staff working in a purpose-built centre in a bid to save vital funds.

The joint control scheme is one of the flagship money-savers in Derbyshire fire service's budget, approved at a meeting on 14 February.

Both services are expecting to run a deficit of hundreds of thousands next year so it is hoped this move will save them each £350,000 a year. But it could cost £430,000 to set up at the Ascot Drive site in Derby, pictured above.

It is understood to be too early to say if the move will result in job losses.
