Jet2 flight LS1872 from Palma de Mallorca to Bristol was delayed for more than four hours after boarding stairs reportedly struck the aircraft’s wingtip. Passengers were initially told the delay was caused by an air traffic restriction, then were disembarked and later allowed to reboard. One passenger described the disruption as a nightmare, while Jet2 Holidays was contacted for comment.

A man from Torpoint received a four-and-a-half‑year prison sentence for shooting his sister’s partner’s son in the face with a crossbow, attempting to stab him, and striking him with a mug during a drunken outburst linked to resentment over inheritance. Court proceedings highlighted his intoxication, declining mental health, and remorse, with the judge noting alcohol had caused him to lose control. A restraining order was imposed, and the victim reported ongoing fear after the attack.
