Devon travel: 'Chaos' in Paignton
Hayley Westcott
BBC News Online
There are reports of 'travel chaos' on Kings Ash Road in Paignton because of traffic light failure.
A suspected burglar targeted the wrong house in Bodmin over the weekend when he was confronted by a police dog who lives there, an officer says.
The unnamed handler of Police Dog (PD) Ronnie said on Twitter that his trusty hound tracked and detained a male at about 04:00 on Saturday after an attempt to "to access the house and vehicles".
The officer added that Ronnie's "response time was pretty instant".
"We particularly liked the wide eyed look of shock and colour drain from his face," he added.
Quarter 'unhappy with how Cornwall Council runs things'
Tamsin Melville
Political Reporter, BBC Radio Cornwall
A quarter of people are unhappy with how Cornwall Council runs things, and more than half don't feel well informed, according to the latest resident's survey.
It's the third residents' survey since 2014, which saw 12,000 responses after 30,000 questionnaires were sent out across the county
BBCCopyright: BBC
At a behind-closed-doors presentation last week, it was revealed a quarter of people were actively dissatisfied with how the council ran things - staying broadly the same from 2016. A further quarter were neither satisfied or dissatisfied - an increase. Some 47% were fairly or very satisfied.
Only 30% per cent of residents agreed the authority provided value for money, a majority disagreed that the council was trustworthy and 57% did not feel well-informed.
There were some positives: more people agreed than disagreed that the council was making their local area a better, cleaner and safer place to live.
And it seemed that it could make a big difference where you live: those in Wadebridge and Padstow were generally much happier with the council than Bodmin residents.
Owers wants players to go out on loan
Brent Pilnick
BBC Sport
Torquay United's out-of-favour players should consider going out on loan, says Gulls boss Gary Owers.
The National League's bottom side have a weekend off after losing in the FA Cup, and Owers says some of his squad should take that chance to play.
"Some of the lads that haven't been playing need to think about how they're going to get fit," Owers told BBC Radio Devon after the 2-0 loss to Hartlepool.

"My advice would be go and get yourself away for a month and see what happens."
He continued: "My current raft of loan players will be leaving in the same week of the same month in December and I need as many players as possible match fit and available."
It is hoped the changes would help Cornwall meet a national recycling target of 50% by 2020.
The proposals will be considered next month.

Passengers flying from Alicante were stranded at Newquay Airport while waiting for the UK Border Force to arrive.
About 200 passengers on the Ryanair flight had to wait for about an hour and 20 minutes until officials arrived, the airport confirmed.
It said in a statement that "due to the non-attendance of UK Border Force officials for the inbound flight (FR2954) from Alicante on Sunday 29 October, to comply with the legislation passengers were accommodated in the airport terminal until officers arrived onsite to process the passengers".
Quote Message: We are sorry to anyone inconvenienced at Newquay Airport. Incidents such as these are rare.

Teenage debutant Kane Wilson was given a second yellow card in stoppage time by referee Anthony Backhouse for kicking the ball away in their 1-1 draw with Mansfield Town in League Two.
"It's nice to stand here and say he got sent off for the right thing," he said.
"Every single week I go on to fourth officials and referees to book people for kicking the ball away."

Wilson, 17, is on loan at City from Premier League side West Bromwich Albion and was booked for what Tisdale described as a "dubious" foul in the first half.
But Tisdale, the longest-serving manager in the English Football League, says referees must get tougher on players wasting time.
"It took until the 80th minute for the referee to book one of their players for doing it, it had been going on for about an hour, so it was a yellow card and a lesson learned.
"What I'd ask referees to do is do it all the time, if it's the first minute or the last minute, do it.
Waste site fire: Recycling digger used to break down doors
A digger at a recycling site has been used to break down the doors of a building which caught fire to help firefighters deal with the blaze inside.

He said people should leave roads to the scene clear for emergency vehicles, and repeated an earlier warning that people living nearby should keep doors and windows closed because of possible fumes from the smoke.

A father from Cornwall accused of murdering his adopted 18-month-old daughter gripped and shook her, a court heard.
Matthew Scully-Hicks, 31, of Delabole, denies inflicting catastrophic injuries on Elsie Scully-Hicks at their Cardiff home.
But prosecutor Paul Lewis QC, making his closing speech, argued he "gripped her by the rib cage, shook her, and she struck her head on a hard surface or he used a hard object to hit her".
Mr Lewis said the defendant claimed Elsie's injuries "must simply have occurred spontaneously, he says her injuries and death are unexplainable".
