Emergency services from across West Yorkshire were called to recover a car from the Leeds and Liverpool Canal in Shipley early today.

Shipley firefighters were called Dockfield Road at about 1am and found the car in the water.

Crews from Idle, Bingley, Brighouse and Leeds also attended the scene, along with police officers and the West Yorkshire Police helicopter.

The spokesman said it looked as if the Ford Ka had either been deliberately driven or pushed into the canal.

The water rescue unit from Bingley assisted with recovering the vehicle.
