News Day 2 Bulletin

To here the full bulletin click here


Script:


Two robbers threatened a cashier on Sunday night in the Shell garage on Weyhill Road, Andover.

The employee gave the men the remaining money in the till after being threatened with a metal bar and a firearm.

It is known that the men drove away in blue Renualt Clio, but detectives are encouraging anyone who was at the petrol station, near the time of the incident, to give any information they have to help with the enquiry.


Potholes are causing a dramatic increase in the number of insurance claims due to damage on cars and bicycles.

To repair all major potholes on our roads one hundred and forty million pounds will be deducted from the council’s budget, as each pothole costs seventy pounds to repair.

The AA has been tracking this increase for the last two years.


Two hundred thousand pounds has been awarded to Fareham Borough Council in order to create an Eco-town within Hampshire.

The Eco-town will consist of seven thousand new homes, schools, shops, community centres and a large amount of open space.

Money will also go towards a new ‘green’ development site, which will focus on green space and renewable energy.

Executive Leader for Fareham Borough Council, Sean Woodward, said this will have a positive impact on local neighbourhoods.

Money will be raised for homeless charities as people take part in ‘Winchester Walk for the Homeless’ on Sunday the 9th of May.

Fifty thousand pound is hoping to be raised by people walking to sites such as the Itchen River and returning to Winchester Cathedral.

Celebrations will be held at the Cathedral between 12 and 3:30 for people who have taken part.
