Essex council in High Court bid to stop asylum seekers being housed at hotel
An Essex council has applied for an interim High Court injunction in a bid to stop asylum seekers from being housed at a hotel. Documents relating to the Bell Hotel in Epping were lodged with the High Court in London on Tuesday, Epping Forest District Council said in a statement. A series of protests have been held outside the hotel in recent weeks, after an asylum seeker was charged with allegedly attempting to kiss a 14-year-old girl. Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu, 38, denies sexual assault and is due to stand trial this month. Council leader Chris Whitbread said the use of the hotel as asylum accommodation risks causing 'irreparable harm to the local community'. The council had unanimously voted last month to urge the Government 'to immediately and permanently close' the hotel 'for the purposes of asylum processing'. The Essex Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner, Roger Hirst, had also reportedly called on the Home Secretary to review the use of the hotel for housing asylum seekers.

If the Bell Hotel was a nightclub, we could have closed it down long ago. 'So far as the council is aware, there is no criminal record checking of individuals who might only have been in the country a matter of days before being housed at the hotel. 'There are five schools and a residential care home within the vicinity of the hotel. The use by the Home Office of the premises for asylum seekers poses a clear risk of further escalating community tensions already at a high, and the risk of irreparable harm to the local community. 'This will only increase with the start of the new school year. We are frustrated that the Home Office continues not to listen.' He continued: 'In our view, placing asylum seekers in the Bell Hotel is a clear breach of planning permission. It is not in use as a hotel, and it doesn't function as a hotel. 'The establishment of a centre to accommodate asylum seekers in this particular location, in close proximity to five schools, a residential care home, and the shops and amenities of the market town of Epping, is not appropriate in planning terms.' Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch claimed women in the area have 'stopped jogging in the park because there are men lurking in bushes', because of concerns about the hotel. Following a visit to Epping on Monday, Mrs Badenoch told reporters: 'The people who I spoke to are having a lot of concerns about safety. Mothers told me that they're worried about their daughters going to school. They're getting harassed. They stopped jogging in the park because there are men lurking in bushes. 'Communities shouldn't have to be paying for this. And what I saw in Epping really, really upset me. I can see why many of those people are protesting.'

Driver who ran red lights in chase told police: 'Can't prove jack s*** mate'
A driver who ran red lights in a dangerous police pursuit told an arresting officer: "Can't prove jack s*** mate." Philip Beaulieu, 39, was driving a Ford C-Max on Wavertree Avenue in Widnes when he accelerated away from a police car. The incident, which happened at around 2.25pm on July 31, saw Beaulieu travelling far in excess of the speed limit. He also failed to give way at junctions, ran red traffic lights and went onto the opposite side of the road. Police stopped the pursuit due to the dangers of the chase. Checks revealed Beaulieu had an expired provisional driving licence and was not named on the insurance of the vehicle he was seen driving. Officers attended the registered keeper's address and located Beaulieu. READ MORE: Mum given 'chance after chance' to prove herself but her luck ran out READ MORE: Man picked up baby seagull and bludgeoned it against bin The registered keeper of the car was out of the country however after being spoken to over the phone by officers, they confirmed Beaulieu had not been given permission to drive the vehicle. Footage released by Cheshire Constabulary showed the moment Beaulieu was arrested by police officers. After being cautioned, he was asked by an officer if he understood what was happening and he initially said no. But more footage taken from inside the police vehicle as he was taken to a police station showed Beaulieu turn aggressive. He told the officer: "Can't prove jack. Can't prove jack s*** mate." He then added: "Your house is getting burned every f***ing day lad." The officer then further arrested Beaulieu on suspicion of threats to cause damage. Beaulieu responded: "Just because you couldn't catch the f***ing car. That's your problem." The officer can be heard to reply: "You didn't get away from me lad." The driver was subsequently charged with both the driving offences and the threats to damage/destroy property. Beaulieu, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty to aggravated vehicle taking, dangerous driving, driving with no insurance, driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence and threats to damage/destroy property. Appearing at Warrington Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, August 6, he was sentenced to 12 months in prison. On top of his custodial sentence, Beaulieu was banned from driving for 36 months and is required to pass an extended test before he can get a licence again. Speaking after the sentencing, Cheshire Constabulary PC Holland said: "Beaulieu knew he was in the wrong by driving a vehicle he'd taken without the owner's consent, and without a valid licence or insurance. He chose to put other road users in danger by fleeing from police with no regard for the safety of other members of the public. "But it was to no avail, and he was arrested soon afterwards. Despite Beaulieu denying all responsibility in interview, he changed his plea to guilty when faced with the overwhelming evidence at court; no doubt helped by some thinking time after a long weekend on remand. "Let this be a reminder – if you commit crime on Cheshire's roads, there is nowhere you can hide."

3-time Grand Slam semifinalist Grigor Dimitrov is out of the US Open with an injured chest muscle
NEW YORK (AP) — Three-time Grand Slam semifinalist Grigor Dimitrov withdrew from the U.S. Open on Tuesday, a little more than a month after he tore a chest muscle and had to quit playing against Jannik Sinner at Wimbledon. That exit from the All England Club on July 7 — Dimitrov had taken the opening two sets against Sinner but got hurt in the third — marked the fifth consecutive Grand Slam tournament where the 34-year-old Dimitrov failed to complete a match. It also happened at the Australian Open in January and the French Open in May, plus last year's Wimbledon and U.S. Open. A year ago in New York, Dimitrov stopped while trailing 6-3, 6-7 (5), 6-3, 4-1 against Frances Tiafoe in the quarterfinals. Dimitrov was a semifinalist at the U.S. Open in 2019, at the Australian Open in 2017, and at Wimbledon in 2014. His highest ranking was No. 3; he is currently No. 21. With Dimitrov out of the field, Alejandro Tabilo gets a spot in the men's singles bracket, which starts play on Aug. 24. Brandon Holt is the next player who would move into the draw if another man withdraws. Holt upset Taylor Fritz at Flushing Meadows in 2022 and his mother is two-time U.S. Open champion Tracy Austin. ___ AP tennis:
