    1 hour ago    From the section Tyne & Wear

Six people, including three children, were injured when a car mounted a kerb and ploughed into a crowd of people outside a sports centre in Newcastle.

It happened outside Westgate Sports Centre where an event was taking place to celebrate the end of Ramadan.

One of the children is said to have been critically injured. Northumbria Police said the incident was not believed to be terrorism-related.

A 42-year-old woman was arrested and is in custody, police said.
