    Multiple attacks on emergency services staff in Bradford have been condemned by local politicians.

    Over the past week firefighters have been pelted with roof tiles and bricks hurled at police responding to 999 calls. 

    In one incident on Skinner Lane, Manningham, bricks were thrown at a police car when officers arrested a man for drug-driving. 

    Bradford South MP Judith Cummins has condemned the attacks and a senior councillor called for a “zero-tolerance approach”.
