From a lost cache of photographs of a folklore festival to the A66 dualling plan being approved – here are some of the stories from Teesside you might have missed this week.
Stray puppy recruited by police force
A police force has gained a new four-legged recruit after it adopted a stray puppy.
Jager, an eight-week-old Belgian Malinois, was found running around the streets of Hartlepool last week before he was taken in by animal charity Stray Aid, Durham Police said.
After seeing the young pup’s potential, the organisation contacted the force’s Dog Support Unit to see if there was a job for him.
Hundreds of dead fish in lake after hot weather
Hundreds of fish have died in a park lake after a significant drop in oxygen levels due to increased water temperatures.
Residents spotted the fish floating on the surface of the lake at Locke Park, Redcar, Teesside.
The Environment Agency (EA) investigated and determined it had been caused by “natural factors”.
A66 dualling approved again after review delay
A plan to dual the A66 has been approved again, a year after the government put the scheme on hold.
The project to widen the road, which runs from Penrith to Scotch Corner, was approved by the previous Conservative government, but when Labour won the election last July it put the plan on hold to review a “black hole” in the public purse.
The Department for Transport (DfT) has now confirmed the work in a £92bn national package announced on Tuesday.
Water polo team ‘dreaming’ of winning top division
A men’s water polo team will be entering Division One and competing for a place in European competitions after four back to back promotions.
The Sedgefield Water Polo Club will represent their County Durham town and nearby Newton Aycliffe in the top flight of the British Water Polo League from September.
The men’s team was created in 2021 and started playing at the bottom of the pyramid in Division Five.
Photos showcase early days of folklore festival
A treasure trove of previously unseen photographs that showcase the early years of a folklore festival have been revealed.
The images capture the spectacle of the Billingham International Folklore Festival (BIFF) from 1968 to the early 1970s.
The shots were all taken by keen amateur photographer Walter Crinnion before his death in 1974.

CHOCOWINITY, N.C. — If you ever watched I’Kiriyah Minor play sports at Southside High School, you probably got the feeling she could excel at any game she played.
During the fall, she was one of the standouts on the volleyball team. In the winter, she led the girls’ basketball team in several categories. In the spring, she made it to the Class 1-A state track and field championships after success in several competitions.
It’s track that has Minor’s attention and is the sport she will continue to play in college. She announced her intention on Monday to run for the track and field team at NC Wesleyan.
“At first, I was like, I was struggling really bad because I didn’t know if I was going to go to college or not,” said Minor, who considered putting sports aside and going to Pitt Community College. “So at first, I was going to go to Pitt if I didn’t get any scholarships. So I applied.
“I ended up getting help with a coach. And he told me to apply to his school because he got it when he saw me at track season. So I applied and like a week later, I got an email. And that day I got the email, I was like so excited.”
She intends to pursue a criminal justice degree at NCWC.
“I was so excited. Like I couldn’t think about anything else but that. I’m glad they gave me the opportunity to be in track.”
While she hasn’t made an official visit, she said she’s familiar with the campus and the college life she’ll be getting into now that she’s graduated from Southside.
“I’m currently in a group chat with all the coaches and some people that’s going to be running track with me,” Minor said. “I ended up making friends with some people on the track team.”
She’s taken some time off but will get back into the swing of things now that her college future is decided. And she’s excited to get that part of her life off and rolling.
“For track, it’s like it’s easier to meet your accomplishments,” Minor said. “And for one, it’s like an individual sport. So you get to focus more on yourself rather than just a whole team.
“I can’t wait, though. I’m really eager. But I know there’s going to be some competition because our school is not so big. But once you get to a college level, you’re going to have competition.
But that makes me even more excited because instead of just going to a college and there are no people to compete against, I’m just glad there’s going to be more athletic and talented people that I can compete against.”
