An old Ferrari described as a 'rustbucket' complete with missing seats and holes in the floor has sold for a massive £110,000.

The 1962 250 GTE model, which was originally bought by its owner in 1973 for £800 (£4,500 today) had been in storage in a leaking barn in west Wales for 40 years when it was rediscovered.

Inside, the two front seats are missing and its gearbox, the carpet had deteriorated and the radio and control column was hanging off, leaving wires exposed.

Due to the poor state of the barn it had been kept in, the outside blue body of the car was covered in a combination of rust and lichen.

The original owner had driven the car for 10 years before placing it in storage, where it sat ever since.

Media gathers in front of Brooklyn Federal Court for the sentencing hearing of R. Kelly on Wednesday as the singer is to be sentenced on sex trafficking charges.

The prosecution team arrives for the sentencing hearing of US singer R. Kelly.

Jones claims that in March of that year Kelly brought another of his girlfriend's over to where he was keeping her and forced her to perform MouthAction on Jones.

Around that time she claims Kelly also started forcing her to have intercourse with other women - and says he would threaten her if she said no

Jones is pictured in a personal photo from her Instagram.



At Kelly's sentencing on Wednesday, one of the women featured in the docuseries, Lizette Martinez, spoke to the court with attorney Gloria Allred by her side.

'January 1995 eventually changed me forever,' Martinez said, referring to the day she met Kelly at a mall.

Martinez, 17, was an aspiring singer and Kelly had promised to mentor her. But Martinez says he started abusing her two months after they met.

R Kelly faces several of his accusers during his sentencing hearing for federal sex trafficking at the Brooklyn Federal Courthouse in Brooklyn on Wednesday.

Seven of them delivered impact statements before he was sentenced.

One of the victims, Angela, stood in court, looked directly at Kelly and called him a 'Pied Piper' who 'lured children with his money and celebrity.'

'With every addition of a new victim, you grew in wickedness,' she said. 'You used your fame and power to groom and coach underage boys and girls for your own sexual gratification.'

'Today we reclaim our names,' she said. 'We are no longer the preyed-upon individuals we once were.'

'I pray that god reaches your soul,' she said, as Kelly glanced up at her briefly before lowering his eyes back to the table where he sat.

The second victim to speak in court on Wednesday said she never knew that a concert in September of 1994 would change her life forever.

Addie, who previously testified at Kelly's trial but never gave her name, took several breaths before reading her statement Wednesday.

Earlier on Wednesday, several women who testified against Kelly during the trial spoke about how he had promised to mentor them and help them attain stardom, only to subject them to degrading sexual treatment and physical harm.

Many said the abuse led to mental health problems that persist.

Kelly learned his fate after his accusers, including Kitti Jones, told the court, through tears and anger, that he had preyed on them and misled his fans.

Judge Ann M. Donnelly handed down Kelly’s sentence on Wednesday, saying 'the public has to be protected from behaviors like this.'

The R&B star Kelly was convicted on sex trafficking and racketeering charges last September following a nearly six-week trial that amplified accusations that had dogged the singer of the Grammy-winning hit 'I Believe I Can Fly' since the early 2000s.

Judge Ann M. Donnelly handed down Kelly's sentence on Wednesday, despite the defense lawyers' request for a sentence of 10 years or less. Prosecutors had asked for at least 25 years.

Kelly learned his fate after his accusers told the court, through tears and anger, that he had preyed on them and misled his fans.

The picturesque mountains at Shiniuzhai National Geological Park stand at a height of 1,715ft (523m).

It is one of the most popular tourist spots in the country with waterfalls, climbing trails, cable car rides and historical sites.

The store offers snacks, water, energy drinks, biscuits, energy bars, bread and Red Bulls for climbers that need a boost midway.

Climbers are seen buying bottles of water.

To stock up on inventory, workers can only reach the convenience store via zipline while carrying the supplies.

Dubbed the world's "most inconvenient" convenience store, the small store hangs on the side of a mountain in the Shiniuzhai National Geological Park in Hunan province, providing refreshments to climbers who need a quick break in the middle of their climb.

Footage of the event showed Brian Verna charging at his grandfather while his girlfriend, Aldana Soria, was trying to stop him.

Brian Verna returned later and started kicking down the door.

His grandfather opened the door after the fourth attempt and shot him, sending him tumbling over a row of plants.

Mariel Verna stands next to the body of her 29-year-old son, Brian Verna, after he was shot by her father, Domingo Verna, 77, during a domestic violence dispute.

Mariel Verna said her father had a history of harassing her son.



Mariel Verna accused her father of constantly harassing her son, with whom he worked together at the local city parks department.

She said her father had been looking out for her son through his camera and that the fight was over a debt.

The 77-year-old retired military veteran was arrested and released from prison on Wednesday after a judge considered the amount of time he may spend in jail if he is found guilty as well as his age

Brian Verna (left) was shot dead by his grandfather Domingo Verna (right) after he tried to kick down the door to his home on Monday in Bahía Blanca, Argentina.

Moment surveillance camera footage captured the moment a grandfather shot dead his grandson allegedly over a debt.

An autopsy report showed Brian Serna was shot in the abdomen, chest, neck, cheek and shoulder.

Russian emergency services claimed that no casualties had been caused in the explosions and that no evacuations were necessary because the fires posed no threat to nearby residential buildings.

Images from the early-morning hours in Bryansk showed the fires were still burning as the sun came up. Some 158 firefighters and 51 vehicles were still working.

Bryansk, which is located around 70 miles from the Ukrainian border, serves as a logistical hub for Russian Military forces currently fighting for control over Ukraine's eastern Donbas region, while the Druzhba pipeline is the main route through which Russian oil reaches European countries.

Flames lit up the night sky over Russia in the early hours of this morning after two huge explosions in the city of Bryansk in what is suspected to be a Ukrainian missile strike.

Emergency services confirmed that huge fire was raging at the Transneft-Druzhba Oil Depot and a second, unnamed, facility nearby which is thought to be a military base containing oil storage tanks.

Crews were dispatched around 2am to tackle the fires, a press release said.
