Transcript

00:00 Good morning everyone, I'm Darren Burke, one of your live team and digital reporters for

00:04 the Doncaster Free Press, bringing you some of the main headlines in Doncaster this Friday.

00:09 Starting today with the news that a 28-year-old woman is seriously ill in hospital after being

00:13 savaged by a dog while out for a walk. The woman, who was walking with her child in a

00:18 pushchair at the time, was savagely attacked by the ex-held bully breed in Asken. We've

00:23 got full details of that story on our website and our Facebook and we'll keep you in touch

00:27 with any developments throughout the day. Also in the news today, Doncaster Council

00:31 has announced a crackdown on chewing gum on the city's streets. The sticky mess, which

00:36 has been the scourge of the city's streets in recent years, has been tackled with a £23,000

00:41 grant from Keep Britain Tidy. We've got details of that story for you. And also in the news,

00:46 the popular artisan markets in Doncaster Marketplace have been scrapped until the next year. The

00:52 event, which took place once a month, will be moved into the Corn Exchange when it reopens

00:57 after refurbishment later this year. We've got full details of that story on our website

01:03 and our Facebook page. Stay in touch with our Facebook page throughout the day for everything
