Objects were thrown at Nigel Farage as he rode an open-top bus in Yorkshire on Tuesday, 11 June.

The Reform UK leader was campaigning in Barnsley when a protester approached the vehicle.

Mr Farage said he believes objects were some wet cement from a work site followed by a coffee cup, and was warned by police not to get off the bus.

He had just addressed supporters but was interrupted by a crowd of demonstrators.

Police arrested a man who threw the objects.

Utah’s Supreme Court overturned a death sentence Thursday for a man convicted of murdering a woman to stop her from testifying against him in a rape case. Justices said Douglas Lovell had ineffective attorneys at his sentencing hearing, but upheld his conviction and sent the case back to a lower court for resentencing. The Utah Attorney General’s Office — the prosecutors in the case — did not have an immediate answer Thursday as to whether Lovell could again receive a death sentence, spokesperson Alex Curcio said.
