including a first look at tomorrow's papers. Here, | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
A hill walker and a climber have died in separate incidents | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
The hill walker was one of three men missing overnight | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
in the Southern Uplands while the climber was caught | :00:24. | :00:25. | |
in an avalanche near Spean Bridge this afternoon. | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
A young couple last seen at the weekend on Ben Nevis | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
Our reporter, Craig Anderson, is in Fort William. | :00:32. | :00:40. | |
The sad news tonight is that one man has died and another remains in | :00:41. | :00:47. | |
hospital having been caught up in an avalanche on a popular mountain area | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
between Spean Bridge and Newtonmore. The avalanche was seen by other | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
climbers in the area and rescue teams and a coastguard helicopter | :00:58. | :01:04. | |
was scrambled to the area. They were taken to hospital in Fort William | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
were one of the men was pronounced dead. Both are believed not to be | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
local to the area. The coastguard helicopter was in fact at the time | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
looking for two other climbers who are missing an Ben Nevis, Tim Newton | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
and Rachel Slater from the Bradford area. They have not been heard of | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
since they set off to climb Ben Nevis at the weekend and fears are | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
growing for their safety. Tonight it is understood that Rachel Slater's | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
parents have arrived in the area to find out the latest in the search. A | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
decision whether to resume that search will be taken tomorrow | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
morning depending on weather conditions. | :01:48. | :01:55. | |
An intensive search began last night when the three hikers failed | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
to return from a planned walk in the hills near this village. | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
They were named as Jeffrey Stewart, 74, George Crosbie, 73, | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
and 64-year-old Bobby Thomson, or from Dumfries. | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
Experienced hill walkers familiar with the area, | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
we know they parked up here yesterday, the car | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
They went for a walk and were expected to return around | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
At its height, the search involved police, four search and rescue teams | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
Conditions last night were described as appalling. | :02:29. | :02:42. | |
The guys were saying they could barely stand up | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
Visibility was very low, so searching was really difficult. | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
The men had left no details of their intended route, | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
and the search area was up to 40 square miles. | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
News came through just after one o'clock that the coastguard | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
helicopter had located the men in open countryside around | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
They were said to be in a poor condition. | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
The crew took them on board and transferred them to hospital | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
It has since been confirmed that one of the men was pronounced | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
The other two are being treated for hypothermia. | :03:14. | :03:21. | |
A man who abducted and raped a 15-year-old girl on her way home | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
from school in Dunfermline has been jailed. | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
26-year-old Mark Armstrong subjected her to a harrowing ordeal | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
Mark Armstrong had spent the days beforehand robbing and assaulting | :03:31. | :03:38. | |
Then on Thursday the 12th of March, he committed the crime | :03:39. | :03:46. | |
that was today described as cruel, depraved and inhumane. | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
He kidnapped the girl as she returned home from school, | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
threatened her with a knife, forced her onto the grounds | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
of a derelict cottage, and raped her. | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
That and what followed shocked detectives with years of experience. | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
It's horrific, what this 15-year-old girl has been subjected to. | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
There is really nothing I can compare this to, | :04:12. | :04:13. | |
it is worse than I have dealt with in my 22 years' service. | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
From the cottage, Armstrong marched his victim for miles, | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
eventually ending up at his Dunfermline home, | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
26-year-old Armstrong only spoke to the girl to tell her what to do, | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
As night became day, there was another return | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
Armstrong initially said he would let her go, | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
He took her back to his home again, and then he made her walk | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
Finally, in the early hours of the Saturday morning, | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
the 32-hour ordeal ended here at the entrance | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
He had walked her here, given her her mobile phone and left. | :04:55. | :05:02. | |
She called her mother, who came to get her. | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
Police described the mother hugging her daughter. | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
The girl was shaking, crying and occasionally howling. | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
Today at the High Court in Glasgow, the judge handed Mark Armstrong | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
a lifelong restriction order and told him he will have to serve | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
a minimum of four years in prison before he can be | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
There will be no assessment carried out and no consideration | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
by the parole board for four years, but that does not mean he will be | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
The key element is the lifelong restriction. | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
What that means is that Mark Armstrong will remain under | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
the supervision of the state for the rest of his life, | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
and he will remain in custody until such a time as it is assessed | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
that he no longer presents a risk to the public. | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
He already had a number of convictions for crimes | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
of violence, and police say it is due to the courage and bravery | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
of his 15-year-old victim that he is back in jail. | :06:01. | :06:08. | |
A five-month-old baby girl from Levenmouth in Fife has died. | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
Hayley Davidson died this afternoon in hospital in Edinburgh. | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
She had been there since Sunday after police were called to a house | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
in Buckhaven following a report of concern for a child. | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
A man's appeared in court charged with murder after the death | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
The body of 37-year-old Jessica McGraa was discovered | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
at a flat on Union Terrace on Friday afternoon. | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
Bala Chinda, who's 25, was charged with murder and theft. | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
He made no plea and was remanded in custody. | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
One person is believed to have died in a two-car crash in the Highlands. | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
The collision happened this evening on the A836 near Thurso. | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
Police say the road remains closed and local diversions are in place. | :06:48. | :07:05. | |
The task force set up to minimise the effect of the closure | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
of Texas Instruments in Greenock has met the American owners | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
More than 350 jobs will be lost over the next three years if a buyer | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
I am disappointed they have made the final decision to close the plant | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
but we are very much committed to finding a prospective buyer. I think | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
there's a clear commitment there to find a buyer. | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
Several secondary schools in West Dunbartonshire will be | :07:30. | :07:31. | |
closed tomorrow because of a teachers' strike. | :07:32. | :07:32. | |
It's the second stoppage by the EIS in just over a month. | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
The dispute is over plans to reduce the number of principal teachers. | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
Andy Murray's baby daughter has been named Sophia Olivia. | :07:39. | :07:40. | |
The tennis star didn't disclose the name when his wife, | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
Bookmakers are already offering 500-1 that little Sophia will win | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
Clear skies tonight, chilly. Lovely picture from one of our weather | :07:48. | :08:06. | |
Watchers in Fife. But red skies by night, Shepherd 's delight tomorrow. | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
But tonight it is cold and frosty. The rain we saw last night, still | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
affecting parts of the UK. As the colder Dixon, wintry times. The odd | :08:17. | :08:24. | |
flaky end there but I do, for most of the UK, dry, cold and frosty. As | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
we head through towards tomorrow morning, plenty of dry weather | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
around but showers coming in toward the west and north-west so a risk of | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
ice. But for many, a dry and sunny start, a crisp February morning. | :08:40. | :08:46. | |
These are the temperatures at 8am. Towards the west coast, milder. For | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
many though, a dry sunny start Thursday morning. AQ showers up | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
towards Orkney and Shetland 's and the winds occasionally fresh. As we | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
head through the course of Thursday, we hold onto that theme of showers. | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
Elsewhere dry bright. The best of the sunshine for the north-east and | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
south-east. Westerly winds driving one or two showers towards Edinburgh | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
and five times. As we look across the UK as a whole, plenty of | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
sunshine for England and Wales. Just to hang back, the overnight cloud | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
and rain affecting East Anglia in Kent. In Scotland, those showers, | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
wintry at times, the old rumble of thunder, one or two showers pushing | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
through the central belt as well. Overnight, clear, cold and frosty | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
but thickening cloud and arriving rain. On Friday, fairly wet. The | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
cloud builds and the rain arrives. Wintry across the hills on high | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
ground. By afternoon, that weather front clears, so just AQ showers. | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
Highs of seven or eight. | :09:55. | :09:58. |
