Description
<p>In this weeks' episode we discuss two breaking incidents from overnight.</p>
<p>Penistone Road and several of its surrounding streets were gridlocked today (September 29) after South Yorkshire Police shut the road in the early hours.</p>
<p>A special constable was mown down by a vehicle as police responded to reports of a man with a gun in the area.</p>
<p>Video footage shared online appears to show one officer jumping out of the way of the vehicle.</p>
<p>As a result, traffic was at a near standstill in both directions on the dual carriageway as commuters were directed through side streets to get around the closure earlier this morning.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, things were no calmer in the city centre.</p>
<p>Arundel Gate was closed by officers between Furnival Gate and Commercial Street following a stabbing at around 2.28am this morning.</p>
<p>A man is in hospital in a serious condition and two men are being held for attempted murder.</p>
<p>In addition, we also talk about news that kelham Island Brewery has been saved from closure.</p>
