London Brentwood

Met Police officer Paul Bewsey has been charged with assault after an altercation with a 14-year-old child in Brentwood on 21 April.

A man has been hit and killed by a lorry on the M25 after getting out of his car on the hard shoulder to check for damage.

It took police six days to launch a murder investigation after notorious British criminal John 'Goldfinger' Palmer was shot dead.
