Lincolnshire's top stories
These are the top stories from across Lincolnshire so far today:
Chris Epton, a donkey owner in Skegness, says he's been criticised for keeping rides going, despite providing donkeys with parasols and water.
Quote Message: It's just upset me completely, because we take great pride in our donkeys and we think that we maintain our donkeys very well. Donkey's are a hot climate animal, they can cope with it and they can carry the weight. We don't put large children on, we keep it down to under 7 stone. from Chris Epton Donkey Owner

She walked into the 65-year-old's bedroom and called out his name to wake him.
Davies then asked the victim to sit up, before removing a gold necklace from round his neck and then taking a gold bracelet.
The two pieces were both worth over £2000.
The 31-year-old admitted two charges of burglary and of fraudulently using the man's bank card at Lincoln Crown Court.
She was jailed for three years and four months.

United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust is changing services at Pilgrim Hospital after putting it under review because of serious staffing shortages.
The plan includes a temporary model to keep the children's ward open from August, and contingency plans to provide additional space at Lincoln County Hospital if that idea fails.
Much of the extra money will go towards funding extra locum doctors, who'll fill gaps in the rota, more short-term agency staff on occasional shifts and, in the future, private ambulances.
Members of the ULHT's executive met to discuss the situation at Pilgrim Hospital today.
Boston MP, Matt Warman, said "money is not the issue" when it comes to managing the situation at Pilgrim.
"If we need additional resources, then those resources will be found," he said.
Quote Message: It's ultimately about children and mother's lives and we have to make sure that those comes first. We don't know yet how much that cost will be, but we are also very clear that whatever the cost is closing the unit would have a greater cost implication." from Matt Warman MP
