:00:02. > :00:05.This is East Midlands Today, with Dominic Heale, and me, Anne Davies.
:00:05. > :00:10.Our top story tonight: The heroes facing a new, invisible
:00:10. > :00:15.enemy. Hundreds of soldiers back from the frontline are facing
:00:15. > :00:24.stress, alcoholism and debt. young infantry man is normally
:00:24. > :00:28.between 18 and 30. It's not a mature mind. It might be a mature
:00:28. > :00:31.body. We talk to the 14-year-old hit-and-
:00:31. > :00:36.run victim. Also, the thieves who think working
:00:36. > :00:46.dogs like these are fair game. And find out how this gadget can
:00:46. > :00:50.
:00:50. > :00:55.protect your cash. Good evening, welcome to Thursday's
:00:55. > :00:59.programme. First tonight, hundreds of military veterans are to be
:00:59. > :01:01.helped by a unique new care service in Nottinghamshire. It'll tackle
:01:01. > :01:06.everything from post traumatic stress disorder to homelessness,
:01:06. > :01:09.debt and drink problems. Health bosses had been warned that
:01:09. > :01:13.thousands of veterans in the East Midlands could suffer from a range
:01:13. > :01:23.of issues when they return to Civvy Street. This exclusive report from
:01:23. > :01:26.our social affairs correspondent, Jeremy Ball.
:01:26. > :01:31.Michael has not lost his sense of humour but he is still learning to
:01:31. > :01:36.talk again, almost 35 years after he was shot in their head by the
:01:36. > :01:40.IRA. The Royal British Legion is helping him run his home here in
:01:40. > :01:46.West Bridgford. Before they stepped in, he was damned out of thousands
:01:46. > :01:54.of pounds and was struggling with a drink problem. -- he was scam and.
:01:54. > :02:00.I did not know what I was doing. But now, well, it is getting a lot,
:02:00. > :02:05.lot better now. Now a new battle- hardened generation of young
:02:05. > :02:10.soldiers are leaving the Army with a complex mix of problems, physical
:02:10. > :02:13.and mental injuries and alcoholism and debt. Charities and health
:02:13. > :02:21.services are joining forces and veterans to contact any agency will
:02:21. > :02:24.be offered a comprehensive care package. The next few years will be
:02:24. > :02:30.difficult with the numbers being discharged from the Armed Forces.
:02:30. > :02:34.There are a number living on the streets in Nottinghamshire. They
:02:34. > :02:38.could have enduring mental health problems and are misusing
:02:38. > :02:43.substances. They are really in need of help. More than 20 organisations
:02:43. > :02:47.have already signed up to the partnership. They are facing some
:02:47. > :02:53.daunting challenges. Around 50,000 veterans across these Midlands are
:02:53. > :02:58.likely to be coping by drinking too much. That is an estimate from the
:02:58. > :03:06.NHS. The same resort -- report says 19,000 could develop post traumatic
:03:06. > :03:10.stress disorder. Well over 2000 veterans across a Nottinghamshire
:03:10. > :03:15.and Derbyshire were supported by The Royal British Legion. There is
:03:15. > :03:20.a massive problem. The normal infantry man is between 18 and 30.
:03:20. > :03:24.It is not a mature mind. It might be a mature body. Some of the
:03:25. > :03:28.horrors can have an effect on certain individuals and it is those
:03:28. > :03:32.problems that come back after service. Michael has suffered more
:03:32. > :03:39.problems than most but now he is getting the help he needs. And the
:03:40. > :03:42.new partnership is designed to make sure nobody else slips through the
:03:42. > :03:46.net. Jeremy's joined us in the studio.
:03:46. > :03:49.How significant is this? Well, they think it's the country's first all-
:03:49. > :03:51.encompassing veterans service. It actually started as a project to
:03:52. > :03:55.deal with post traumatic stress disorder. But they quickly found
:03:55. > :03:57.there were lots of other health problems that needed tackling. And
:03:57. > :04:01.those veterans were often struggling with everything from
:04:01. > :04:04.money to finding a home. But there are so many services, they simply
:04:04. > :04:08.didn't know where to turn. So effectively what they're doing now
:04:08. > :04:12.is pooling their resources. How much of a problem is there?
:04:12. > :04:17.It's hard to say because a lot of soldiers are too proud to ask for
:04:17. > :04:21.help. But these days there are more veterans who've been to war. And
:04:21. > :04:28.when you go there, you can see why it's so hard to deal with. You
:04:28. > :04:32.sometimes see that 1,000-yard stare from these guys. They never know
:04:32. > :04:36.when they're going to get shot or blown up. A lot of them have lost
:04:36. > :04:39.close friends. Some even struggle to deal with the fact that they
:04:39. > :04:43.might have killed someone else. And of course PTSD can take more than a
:04:43. > :04:47.decade to emerge, so there's a good chance we haven't seen the worst of
:04:47. > :04:50.it yet. It is long-term. Thank you very much indeed.
:04:50. > :04:53.Next tonight, the father of a boy who was the victim of a hit-and-run
:04:53. > :04:57.says he's disgusted that the police haven't haven't yet taken action
:04:57. > :05:00.against the driver. Riaz Khan says his 14-year-old son is lucky to be
:05:00. > :05:03.alive. He says Leicestershire Police have the full registration
:05:03. > :05:08.number of the vehicle involved and the force has written a letter to
:05:08. > :05:11.the owner. Mr Khan says he can't understand the delay and says vital
:05:11. > :05:21.evidence could have been destroyed. Helen Astle has just sent this
:05:21. > :05:21.
:05:21. > :05:26.report from Leicester. Qais suffered two fractures to his
:05:27. > :05:31.knee after being hit by the car. He vividly remembers what happened.
:05:31. > :05:37.The traffic lights were red so I walked across the road. The car hit
:05:37. > :05:42.me and I rolled onto the bonnet. I rolled off the car. He is very
:05:42. > :05:48.lucky to be alive. He could have died. He could have been hit or
:05:48. > :05:53.seriously injured or died. It is very lucky he survived. This is
:05:53. > :05:58.where Qais was hurt. The road was busy and it was around 5pm in the
:05:58. > :06:03.afternoon last Wednesday. Following the incident, a witness took the
:06:03. > :06:08.boy home. The force have written to the registered keeper of the car.
:06:08. > :06:13.Qais's father is unhappy with their response. What is a letter? He
:06:13. > :06:17.could say that he never drove the car, he could sell the car on, he
:06:17. > :06:21.could make all sorts of excuses. He could even get rid of the evidence.
:06:21. > :06:25.Anything can happen in those few days. In a statement, the police
:06:25. > :06:29.say the initial report suggested Qais suffered minor injuries,
:06:29. > :06:33.letter was only yesterday officers discovered he had suffered two
:06:33. > :06:39.fractures to his legs. The statement goes on to say, we
:06:39. > :06:44.apologise for the service of family initially received and we take all
:06:44. > :06:50.incidents of bad driving extremely seriously. For his father, that is
:06:50. > :06:54.not enough. He could have come to my house but he did not. People get
:06:54. > :06:59.arrested for minor offences like shoplifting. Stealing a Mars Bar,
:06:59. > :07:04.for example. They get arrested, convicted and taken to court. Just
:07:04. > :07:09.for minor offences. But this man knocked my son over and drove on.
:07:09. > :07:14.The police have done nothing about it. The family hope the police will
:07:14. > :07:17.catch the offender as soon as possible. For Qais, he will be on
:07:17. > :07:24.crutches for the next four to six weeks.
:07:24. > :07:32.Still to come on the programme, a frosty forecast from Sally. Where
:07:32. > :07:40.is it? I know it is here somewhere! Ah! Found it! But the question is,
:07:40. > :07:43.do you know where doors is? You might well need it! -- way yours is.
:07:43. > :07:46.Police in Leicestershire have arrested a woman after she went to
:07:46. > :07:49.a school armed with a knife while children were in class. Officers
:07:49. > :07:54.were called to De Lisle College in Loughborough on Tuesday afternoon,
:07:54. > :07:56.where they say a 45-year-old woman was found in the grounds. She's
:07:56. > :08:02.been charged with assaulting a police officer and carrying a
:08:02. > :08:05.weapon. Police say no-one at the school was hurt.
:08:05. > :08:08.The funeral has taken place of a Red Arrows pilot who died after
:08:08. > :08:10.being ejected from his aircraft. Flight Lieutenant Sean Cunningham,
:08:10. > :08:15.a former Nottingham Trent University student, was killed last
:08:15. > :08:19.month at RAF Scampton, near Lincoln. About 800 people attended the
:08:19. > :08:29.funeral at Coventry Cathedral. As a mark of respect, two RAF Tornado
:08:29. > :08:33.Police have released CCTV pictures of an armed robber who threatened
:08:33. > :08:36.supermarket staff with a knife before stealing the takings. The
:08:36. > :08:41.man targeted the Nisa supermarket at Sherwood in Nottingham last
:08:41. > :08:46.month. He can be seen brandishing a large knife before taking money
:08:46. > :08:51.from the till. No-one was hurt. The man is described as black and
:08:51. > :08:54.around 6 foot 3 inches tall. Next tonight, the BBC has learned
:08:54. > :08:58.that the number of dog thefts has doubled this year, with many cases
:08:58. > :09:07.here in the East Midlands. Working dog breeds like cocker spaniels are
:09:07. > :09:12.said to be most at risk. Sarah Sturdey has this exclusive report.
:09:12. > :09:18.Missing, believed stolen from her home near Derby. And this is her in
:09:18. > :09:22.happier times. Just like Alexa Sidwell's other dog, she was a
:09:22. > :09:28.member of the family and they want her back. She must be stolen
:09:28. > :09:34.because she never leaves her friend's side. It is not knowing
:09:34. > :09:38.what has happened to her. That is the thing I find difficult.
:09:38. > :09:42.Thousands of dog owners register with the DogLost website for help.
:09:43. > :09:47.Two years ago, the number of registered missing was in single
:09:47. > :09:55.figures. Last year, it was getting on for double. This year, it has
:09:55. > :09:59.doubled again, sometimes up to 40 a day. Next to where the dog went
:09:59. > :10:04.missing is the local shoot. Half stolen are working dog breeds,
:10:04. > :10:09.especially Cocker spaniels. Field sports are increasing in popularity.
:10:09. > :10:13.One owner told me when his dog stolen, he made inquiries but got
:10:13. > :10:18.it back. But he did not want to be interviewed for fear of
:10:19. > :10:23.repercussions. There is a sinister undertone to this crime. They can
:10:23. > :10:26.be worth anything from a few hundred to a few 1,000. They are
:10:26. > :10:30.not always used for working but it is in the blood so they could just
:10:30. > :10:34.be used for breeding. But it is not just working breeds. In
:10:34. > :10:38.Leicestershire, the theft of these puppies were several hundred pounds
:10:38. > :10:43.was witnessed in the middle of the night. And in Nottingham, this
:10:43. > :10:49.unusual dog has been cited a few miles away in an emaciated state
:10:49. > :10:54.with an unidentified person. Do not leave your dog tied up outside a
:10:54. > :10:59.shop. It is amazing how many do this. You would not expect your
:10:59. > :11:04.handbag to be outside when you came back, so why you dog? Stella was
:11:04. > :11:11.not reported it stolen but two months on, her owner is desperate
:11:11. > :11:15.for news. The type of dog theft is from opportunism to organised crime.
:11:15. > :11:24.Of the messages clear - if you do not report the theft, the police
:11:24. > :11:29.cannot investigate it. Get your pet my cricket. It could help them. --
:11:29. > :11:32.get a microchip put in your pet. From dog thefts to thefts from the
:11:32. > :11:35.pocket, and purse. The police have begun a crackdown on pick-pockets
:11:35. > :11:39.in the run-up to Christmas. And to keep thieves at bay, Leicestershire
:11:39. > :11:45.Police are giving away a rather nifty little gadget. Simon Ward has
:11:45. > :11:53.been finding out how it works. There is a drama going on in
:11:53. > :11:57.Loughborough. Bill the burglar is on the prowl, looking for easy
:11:57. > :12:05.pickings from unsuspecting shoppers. These people are showing how an
:12:05. > :12:10.alarm can be effective. It sits in your bag and this chain clicks on
:12:10. > :12:15.to your bag -- your wallet or purse. It is very good. And every little
:12:15. > :12:20.bit helps. You get that many people... I keep walking around
:12:20. > :12:26.with my fingers in here because it is so easy for them to take things.
:12:26. > :12:32.And everything that helps is a bonus. I think it is better for
:12:32. > :12:37.older people, anyway. Are they giving them away free? Yes. I will
:12:37. > :12:41.have one, then! And the alarms are proving popular with shoppers.
:12:41. > :12:46.the alarm goes off, people are looking around. And often, people
:12:46. > :12:50.do not know they have had their purse stolen, and they then get
:12:50. > :12:54.home. This is a way of preventing further thefts from happening.
:12:54. > :12:58.busy streets, especially on a market day and in the run-up to
:12:58. > :13:01.Christmas, are attempting for would-be thieves. It is very
:13:01. > :13:06.tempting for them at this time of year and we do see a vast amount of
:13:06. > :13:13.these sort of things happening around Christmas, so whatever we
:13:13. > :13:18.can do is a benefit to our residents. Stop! Stop! You can
:13:18. > :13:22.contact the council to get a free alarm, and, like Billy, they will
:13:22. > :13:25.not get away with your cash. Four people arrested over a hit-
:13:25. > :13:28.and-run incident in which a police officer was badly hurt have been
:13:28. > :13:32.released on bail. Diederik Coetzee, a PC in Mansfield, was critically
:13:32. > :13:34.injured after being knocked off his bicycle while off-duty. Three men
:13:34. > :13:37.and a 36-year-old woman were arrested but have since been
:13:37. > :13:47.released, pending further enquiries. Police say they're still examining
:13:47. > :13:55.Up to 300 jobs could be created in Leicester. Everards wants to build
:13:55. > :13:58.a new brewery on land it owns behind Fosse Park in the city. The
:13:58. > :14:04.company wants to create a new food and drinks park with local
:14:04. > :14:07.producers of traditional cheese and pork pies opening shops there. Its
:14:07. > :14:10.existing factory would also be re- located. The planning process has
:14:10. > :14:14.just begun, but if successful, building could start at the end of
:14:14. > :14:18.next year. RyanAir has announced six new
:14:18. > :14:21.routes out of East Midlands Airport. From March next year, the budget
:14:21. > :14:27.airline will fly to Crete, Corfu and Rhodes, along with Barcelona
:14:27. > :14:30.and Almeria in Spain. The sixth route is Zadar in Northern Croatia.
:14:30. > :14:39.The airline will use the existing fleet of four aircraft based at the
:14:39. > :14:42.airport to cover the new routes. An allotment holder, who has kept
:14:42. > :14:45.geese for ten years, believes they may be killed if he's forced to get
:14:45. > :14:47.rid of them. The council at Mansfield Woodhouse in
:14:48. > :14:53.Nottinghamshire has told Roger Spate that it has had complaints,
:14:53. > :15:03.and the birds have to go by next week. So, will they end up with a
:15:03. > :15:04.
:15:04. > :15:09.new, caring home, or stuffed, on a Christmas table?
:15:09. > :15:15.Enjoying winter sunshine, these it East have been on the allotment for
:15:15. > :15:21.10 years. But now, they are under notice to go. An allotment holder
:15:21. > :15:28.since 1985, his original agreement allowed for 12 paltry birds. Three
:15:28. > :15:32.years ago, that was changed to just chickens and ducks. He was told he
:15:32. > :15:37.could keep the geese until they died naturally, but now the
:15:37. > :15:43.district council says they have had complaints. I have had them for 10
:15:43. > :15:51.years, and nobody has ever complained. They are not causing
:15:51. > :15:56.anybody any noise issues. I sleep on the back, and I have not heard
:15:56. > :16:03.them. I think it is silly. council's most recent letter asked
:16:03. > :16:09.him to remove them. I am very worried about it, because it is
:16:09. > :16:15.near Christmas. I feel they will be put into the wrong hands. I want
:16:15. > :16:19.them to go to people as pets, and not Christmas dinners. The council
:16:19. > :16:25.says his decision it is the end result of a long period of
:16:25. > :16:30.discussions and negotiations, and, as a result, the decision to have
:16:31. > :16:39.bid for peace will not be revoked. For the geese to enjoy their home,
:16:39. > :16:42.it seems time is running out. Still to come on the programme:
:16:42. > :16:52.Basketball - Leicester Riders look forward to their biggest game in a
:16:52. > :16:54.
:16:54. > :17:04.decade. I am getting my skates on and heading off into a Winter
:17:04. > :17:11.
:17:11. > :17:13.Wonderland! Time for sport now. We'll start with cricket, and the
:17:13. > :17:16.England batsman, James Taylor, has completed his move from
:17:16. > :17:18.Leicestershire to Nottinghamshire. He has signed a three-year contract,
:17:18. > :17:28.but having broken into the international one-day team this
:17:28. > :17:33.year, Notts aren't quite sure how much they'll see of him. We wanted
:17:33. > :17:39.to play for England. Everybody will want him to go on and have an
:17:39. > :17:44.international career as well. We want to give them that experience
:17:44. > :17:47.of playing. Hopefully, that for making better prepared to play
:17:47. > :17:50.England. An old cry from Nottingham Forest.
:17:50. > :17:53.The Reds' manager, Steve Cotterill, says he wants to sign a permanent
:17:53. > :18:00.leftback. Forest were beaten 4-0 at home by Leeds on Tuesday, and
:18:00. > :18:05.Cotterill admits it's an area that needs strengthening. It would be
:18:05. > :18:10.nice to have a full-time at left back at the club. That is one
:18:10. > :18:16.position we would like to have. Greg has done very well since he
:18:16. > :18:19.has been here, so that would-be one area.
:18:19. > :18:22.Leicester Riders have signed the Great Britain basketball captain
:18:22. > :18:25.for the rest of the season. Drew Sullivan has been playing on a
:18:25. > :18:33.game-by-game basis since October. It's given the team a massive boost
:18:33. > :18:40.ahead of their biggest game in a decade.
:18:40. > :18:46.Leicester Riders have made a phenomenal start to the season.
:18:46. > :18:50.They beckoned Drew Sullivan it is the best in the league. The captain
:18:50. > :18:55.is a special. A tall player, with incredible finesse, and he has
:18:55. > :19:05.helped them to their best start to the season. I am proud to be a part
:19:05. > :19:12.of this. In years to come, I hope they will say this team had the
:19:12. > :19:18.best start they ever had. He is a not great at ball-handling or
:19:18. > :19:25.shooting, but his basketball IQ is so high, the highest I have ever
:19:25. > :19:29.seen. It has been great to have him. He has been fantastic. His
:19:29. > :19:34.versatility allows him to play in so many ways, and his experience is
:19:34. > :19:42.something we have not had before. If he was a little bit more
:19:42. > :19:46.athletic, he would be a star in the NBA. I had been treated amazingly.
:19:46. > :19:50.Leicester Riders travel to Newcastle tomorrow night for their
:19:51. > :19:56.second leg. After a draw in the home leg, it is their best chance
:19:57. > :20:01.of silverware for 10 years. If we don't win the silverware, there
:20:01. > :20:08.will be a little bit of disappointment. The challenger's
:20:08. > :20:13.there, but I know what the guys are saying about it. Drew Sullivan it
:20:13. > :20:20.will captain the GB basketball team at the due the Olympics. It will
:20:20. > :20:27.mean everything to me. It will be the pinnacle of my career. Tomorrow
:20:27. > :20:30.night's semi-final kicks off at 7:30pm.
:20:30. > :20:33.A couple of bits of news from appropriately wintry sports now -
:20:33. > :20:36.Nottingham Panthers had a fantastic win in Cardiff. They came from two
:20:36. > :20:38.goals behind to take an overtime win 4-3, and are now just three
:20:38. > :20:41.points behind league leaders, Belfast.
:20:41. > :20:44.Staying on the ice, because while most of our Olympic focus in the
:20:44. > :20:47.past year has been on the 2012 Summer Games in London, there's a
:20:47. > :20:50.success story developing on the rinks in Nottingham. After a big
:20:50. > :20:59.funding boost, the British Speed Skating team have had their best-
:20:59. > :21:05.ever start to a season. They are the hottest team in one of
:21:05. > :21:09.the coldest disciplines: The speed skaters have won three medals in
:21:09. > :21:15.the first two World Cup events. A far cry from the Winter Olympics,
