00:00Good morning, it's Steph at the Doncaster Free Press and it's Thursday, January the 23rd,
00:04bringing you some of our headlines today. First up is a piece from the police that was sent out
00:08yesterday. A successful drugs warrant saw officers shut down a hidden cannabis factory in Doncaster.
00:15We sent that out yesterday. There is a video of that raid taking place. A man has been charged
00:21with the production of cannabis, so you can read all about that this morning. Massive news came
00:26out yesterday. We got hold of a report, a government report, about the future of Doncaster
00:31Sheffield Airport. There are plans, £155 million plans, to reopen the site. All the details are
00:39on the website this morning. It's quite long and convoluted, but basically it means that the
00:45council will be the ones operating the airport. So if you're interested in that, which I know a
00:52lot of you are, a lot of people have been commenting already, you need to just click on
00:56that this morning as well. And then finally, one that was actually on social media, we had a couple
01:03of people contacted us about a group that had tracked down what they claim is a paedophile.
01:11We got in touch with the police about this and they've confirmed that a man, a 68-year-old,
01:17has been arrested on suspicion of sexual offences after he was handed over to the police.
01:23So you can read all about that. Obviously it's only an arrest, there's been no charges as of yet,
01:28but obviously if that does come to light, we'll let you know. So for those three stories and for
01:33anything else that's happening in Doncaster today, just visit the website www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk
01:39and of course we'll keep you updated on Facebook and X. Have a great Thursday.
