Maltby pensioner in hospital after heart attack behind wheel
A PENSIONER suffered a heart attack behind the wheel just minutes after a row over a Maltby car parking space.

The car struck a lampost and rolled back onto High Street coming to rest outside a charity shop.
Police officers investigating the smash at about 11am on Friday want to hear from witnesses to the 'minor disagreement'.
Mr Haystead was taken to Rotherham Hospital where he remains in a 'very poorly condition'.
