00:00Good morning everyone, it's Steph at the Doncaster Free Press and it's Monday November the 4th.
00:05I hope you've all had a lovely weekend. I know some of you have had your bonfire night early.
00:11Lots of fireworks going off over the weekend. So I hope it's been a thoroughly enjoyable one.
00:17I'm back to school for some of you today, so now we're on the countdown to Christmas.
00:22Yes, I can say it now the John Lewis advert's out.
00:26Anyway, to matters in hand, I'm just bringing you some of our headlines from today and over the weekend in Doncaster.
00:35First of all we've got a really, really bad one for you.
00:38Police are investigating following a three vehicle Doncaster crash which has tragically claimed the life of a motorcyclist.
00:46The fatal collision took place on the A19 in Asken on Friday night, that's November the 4th.
00:53Police are now appealing for witnesses as investigations continue.
00:57So if you've got any information, please get in touch with them.
01:01Then next up, excuse me, a Doncaster City homeless shelter has been earmarked for closure with new plans in place to support the city's rough sleepers.
01:14The building, Open House Plus, which is situated on College Road, could shut by the New Year, operators Changing Lives have said.
01:25Apparently the closure of the distinctive landmark building would not impact on the city's homeless community, they've said.
01:33You can read all about that and the reasoning behind the closure on the website or Reddit this morning.
01:40And then finally, a 76-year-old man is due to appear in court after a man was stabbed at a house in Doncaster.
01:48Police were called to Roslington on Saturday afternoon with residents also reporting numerous ambulances and the air ambulance at the scene.
01:57So for those three stories and for anything else that's happening in Doncaster today, please visit the website www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk
