00:11 West Northamptonshire Council, WNC, says works by a developer, which the authority was unaware
00:18 of, have caused delays to the reopening of a multi-million pound relief road.
00:24 Sandy Lane, between Dustin and Harpole, has been closed to all motorists since June 2023,
00:31 while the new Sandy Lane relief road is being built.
00:36 Two long-standing business partners hope to push the boundaries of the fast food industry
00:41 across Northampton, with a new venue now open.
00:45 David Akimbowene and Moynil Islam started their journey together seven years ago, when
00:51 they launched Munchbox.
00:55 A 19-year-old man was taken to hospital with serious head injuries following a serious
01:00 assault in Northampton town centre on Saturday morning, April 13th, say police.
01:07 Northamptonshire police are appealing for witnesses after officers were called at around
01:12 5.45am to reports of a fight in Gold Street involving a group of men.
01:20 A young girl was injured by a dog as it snatched a sandwich from her hand in a Northampton
01:25 park.
01:27 The incident happened near The Swings in the play area of Hunsbury Country Park on March
01:32 18th at around 10.20am.
01:35 Police have recently released the information about the incident.

01:46 their 59-22 success against the South African giants from Pretoria.
01:52 His respect for Saints was clear to see and he wished them well for the rest of the season

02:03 Cobblers delivered arguably their worst performance of the season when they were easily beaten
02:08 2-0 by relegation-threatened Fleetwood Town at Highbury Stadium on Saturday.
02:16 Town have undoubtedly enjoyed an excellent first campaign back in League One, but they've
02:21 also thrown in some shockers and this was about as bad as anything, so much so that
02:26 the 2-0 scoreline flattered them.
02:32 Racing fans of all ages are invited to fasten their seatbelts and experience life in the
02:37 fast lane at Silverstone Museum.
02:41 The museum has just launched its brand new simulator suite and one of our reporters was
02:46 lucky enough to step into the driver's seat.
