News from all over - Langley Mill, Derbys

A furious motorist who took a circular saw to a traffic camera was left even angrier when a court heard it had not caught him. Richard Atkinson, 31, drove to a DIY store, bought the power tool and hacked off the camera after convincing himself he had been flashed for jumping a red light at a junction in January.

Atkinson admitted intending to pervert the course of justice and was jailed for eight weeks.
