A 37-year-old man has been arrested following a manhunt after a policewoman was shot in a popular student area of Leeds.

West Yorkshire Police launched a manhunt for James Leslie after the female officer was shot and injured shortly after 4am today while attending a routine call to a disturbance on Cardigan Lane in the Hyde Park district of Leeds.

A force spokesman said: "Police in Leeds have arrested a 37-year-old man in connection with the shooting of an officer earlier this morning. The man was arrested at 10.10am on Wood Lane in the Headingley area of the city."

One of Lee Rigby's killers boasted he was no threat to the public or police but was a 'continued risk to the military,' after hacking the Fusilier to death, a court has heard.

Michael Adebolajo, 28, who tried to behead the soldier on May 22, showed 'no signs of regret or remorse,' jurors were told.

When he was assessed by a psychiatrist two days later the expert ruled there were no concerns with Adebolajo's mental health then or in the lead up to the murder.

Neither had the self-styled Muslim extremist been drinking alcohol or taking illicit substances, jurors heard.

Oliver Glasgow, prosecuting, said Adebolajo appeared 'polite and cooperative.'

The killer also denied being depressive, suicidal or wanting to self harm.

He claimed he was supported by his family and said at that point his 'principal concern' was that he believed his actions had caused them distress.

Jurors were told Adebolajo had spent two spells in a young offenders institution when he was younger but had never been in trouble for violence before.

He told a psychiatrist the events of May 22 were 'planned' and his actions were down to his religious beliefs.

"I pose no risk to the public or police but would be a continuing risk to the military,' he allegedly added.

The Old Bailey heard he also praised medical staff caring for him in hospital after armed police shot him..

Mr Glasgow said: "The defendant said he was impressed and grateful for the care he was receiving having assumed that after what he had done to a soldier he would be poorly treated and denied access to his spiritual needs."

Adebolajo, of Romford, east London, who has asked to be known as Mujaahid Abu Hamza in court, and Adebowale from Greenwich, south east London, who wants to be known as Ismail Ibn Abdullah, deny Fusilier Rigby's murder, attempting to murder a police officer and conspiracy to murder a police officer.

Both men have already pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence.

The trial continues.
