00:00 Three stories in brief, and Richard Bray has been jailed for six months after pleading
00:05 guilty to the possession of an offensive weapon in a public place. He told police officers
00:10 at Leeds City Station that he had two large steel clamps which he intended to use in self-defence,
00:16 and that he would stab someone if they were taken away from him.
00:19 Next, more than 1,600 trips have been made on the new e-bikes for hire in Leeds so far.
00:26 Over 1,200 users covered around 375km in the first week of operation.
00:33 And finally, regular viewers will recall we met Natasha Loveridge from Guiseley earlier
00:38 in the year. Along with a team of over 50, she successfully scaled Scaffol Pike on Saturday
00:43 to raise awareness of EGFR non-smoking lung cancer, which she was diagnosed with in December
00:49 2022, and to raise funds to support others affected by it.
