A 39-year-old man was due to appear at Lowestoft Magistrates Court today, charged with attempted murder.

A spokeswoman for Suffolk Constabulary said Paul Aldous of Sussex Road has been charged after a 40-year-old woman sustained a wound to her neck in an incident at an address in Sussex Road on Friday afternoon.

The woman was taken to the James Paget Hospital in Gorleston, but was released on Saturday.
