The uncle of a man held on suspicion of the murder of Ann Widdecombe has told the BBC how he "nearly fell to the floor" when he heard his nephew had been arrested. "My legs went like jelly," he said. "He's the last person I would think would do anything like that." He lives near his nephew, although he has not seen him properly for about 10 years. He remembers him as a "quiet and unassuming boy" who was "gentle and polite" and "everything that a shy, young boy would be". Speaking to the BBC in Rotherham, the man, who we are not naming, said his nephew had been living with his father until his death a few months ago. A woman who lives near the suspect also said that she did not see her neighbour very often. Courtney Foster said "he used to take his dad out shopping while he was still alive, but since then he never really went out much". She said a car left the property in Rotherham between 07:30 and 08:00 BST on Wednesday last week and was back by around 17:30 or 18:00. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn4n9023322o
