Doncaster Council Seizes Supercharged Mobility Scooter
DONCASTER Council showcases the pimped up mobility scooter it says has been causing havoc in the area.

A row ensued, during which Ennis, ran over Hannan’s foot. When Mr Hannan’s partner got involved, Ennis slapped her in the face.
Ennis pleaded guilty to common assault and assault by beating at Minshull Street Crown Court. She was given a conditional discharge on each offence for 12 months.
Give her to Edmonds, say we…
