00:00Good morning everyone it's Steph at the Doncaster Free Press and it's Tuesday July the 8th bringing

00:04you some of our top headlines today. First of all the City of Doncaster Council could soon hold a

00:10by-election following the resignation of a new Reform UK councillor we've been told by the local

00:17Democracy Reporting Service. Sam Booth was elected for Reform UK in the Bentley Ward in the May 2025

00:25elections and apparently he has now resigned for personal reasons. All the information is on the

00:32website today for you to have a look so if you did vote for Sam Booth he's no longer your elected

00:41councillor. Then another one from yesterday afternoon actually that's doing well a disabled

00:48Doncaster youngster has been selected to take part in a coin toss ceremony at one of this year's

00:53Wimbledon's finals. Eight-year-old Lydia Lowe will represent the city when she conducts the

00:58ceremony ahead of the ladies wheelchair singles final. Well done to you Lydia and we'll keep an

01:06eye out for you for certain. And then finally one from the police a man was rushed to hospital with

01:14serious injuries after he had another person oh sorry he and another person was attacked by a gang

01:22with baseball bats in broad daylight in the middle of Doncaster. It happened on High Street near the

01:27Mansion House at some point on Sunday we're led to believe the area was cordoned off for some while

01:35while police did their work there. So that's also on the website today. So what you need to do is visit
