A former bakery firm director has announced she's running as an independent candidate in the race to be Avon and Somerset's first Police and Crime Commisioner.

Sue Mountstevens - who's also spent 15 years as a magistrate and sat on the county's police authority - will take on Conservative Ken Maddock, Lib Dem Pete Levy and Labour's John Savage in the public election in November.

The Commissioner will oversee the chief constable and control the force's budget.
