Breaking: A 14-year-old boy has tragically died in a Leeds canal
The lad was enjoying a swim in the gorgeous warm sunshine close to a Lock at Knostrop Fall Lock 3, off George Mann Road, in Hunslet before he disappeared from view to the shocked disbelief of the group of friends he was with.

Despite their best efforts, his body was pulled from the lock around an hour and a half later.A spokeswoman for West Yorkshire Police said: "At 4.32pm yesterday , police received a concern for safety report for a male in the canal by Thwaite Lane, Leeds. Emergency services attended and recovered a teenage male from the water.
"He received medical attention at the scene, but was sadly pronounced deceased a short time later. The death is not being treated as suspicious and a file has been prepared for the coroner."
