A 44-year-old man is expected to appear in court charged with murdering a woman who was stabbed to death at the supermarket where she worked.

Customers pinned down a suspect after 30-year-old Jodie Willsher was attacked at an Aldi in Skipton, North Yorkshire, a week ago.

Neville Hord, of Great Horton Road, Bradford, appeared at York Magistrates' Court on Saturday charged with Mrs Willsher's murder.

He was remanded in custody after a short hearing and told he will appear before a judge at Leeds Crown Court on Thursday.

Mrs Willsher's husband Malcolm described his wife as "lovely and warm", and always having a smile on her face.

"She was amazing, beautiful and a lovely person. She was a doting mother and a loving wife," he said in a statement.
