We're back with the late news at 10.30.

:00:00.:00:00.

Now on BBC One it's time for the news where you are.

:00:00.:00:15.

Emergency services have been dealing with what's been described

:00:16.:00:19.

as a major incident in Cardowan on the outskirts of Glasgow.

:00:20.:00:23.

Initial reports say that a number of people may have been injured.

:00:24.:00:26.

Our reporter John McManus is at the scene.

:00:27.:00:33.

On the servers were called here to Stepps this afternoon. Neighbours

:00:34.:00:45.

had reported seeing two bands who've been set alight. You can see the

:00:46.:00:51.

route remains behind me. They are being taken away now for a parental

:00:52.:00:54.

examination. It must have been a very scary incident. -- forensics

:00:55.:01:02.

examination. I could see the flames, but I couldn't see anything else.

:01:03.:01:08.

For that to happen here in Cardowan, that has never happened before. The

:01:09.:01:14.

police remain in place this morning, but the Scotland are unable to

:01:15.:01:21.

confirm any injuries here. Recently say there is an ongoing

:01:22.:01:22.

investigation. A three-month-old baby,

:01:23.:01:23.

who was taken to hospital after an incident at a homeless

:01:24.:01:25.

facility in West Lothian, has died. Emergency services were called

:01:26.:01:29.

to the unit at Broxburn, on Monday after

:01:30.:01:30.

concerns were raised. Sophia Williams was taken

:01:31.:01:34.

to the Sick Children's Police Scotland say she died

:01:35.:01:36.

there earlier today. The death is being treated

:01:37.:01:41.

as unexplained. The Children's Commissioner has

:01:42.:01:46.

attacked campaigners who've used the death of toddler Liam Fee

:01:47.:01:48.

to further their campaign against the Scottish Government's

:01:49.:01:52.

Named Person initiative. Tam Baillie says it's

:01:53.:01:55.

unforgivable to link the two. Could the murder of Liam Fee have

:01:56.:02:15.

been avoided? Last me -- last week, his mother and her partner were

:02:16.:02:19.

convicted of his murder. This scheme where everyone is assigned a health

:02:20.:02:26.

visitor to look out for them. Someone has said it is unforgivable

:02:27.:02:29.

for people to link this with his death. What we do know is that this

:02:30.:02:36.

was a child who was known to social workers and that puts that incident,

:02:37.:02:44.

that child, way beyond that level... By the children's commissioner

:02:45.:02:48.

admitted that he didn't know it if Liam Fee had a person assigned to

:02:49.:02:54.

him. You could have contacted someone on the Fife Council and

:02:55.:02:58.

found out what arrangements were in place. It's not my responsibility to

:02:59.:03:02.

do that, there will be a serious review. The Scottish Government

:03:03.:03:09.

insists Liam Fee's death has absolutely nothing to do with the

:03:10.:03:12.

insists Liam Fee's death has Named Person policy.

:03:13.:03:13.

Labour claims a lack of girls studying key subjects could hit

:03:14.:03:16.

The party's Education spokesperson Iain Gray says a skills gap

:03:17.:03:19.

could see 10,000 digital jobs unfilled over the next decade.

:03:20.:03:26.

The Scottish Government says it's working to encourage girls and women

:03:27.:03:28.

into science, technology, engineering and maths.

:03:29.:03:30.

It's already announced an additional ?1.5 million of funding.

:03:31.:03:33.

Mr Gray's highlighting official figures which show a 45% drop

:03:34.:03:36.

in girls studying Higher Computing since 2007.

:03:37.:03:46.

This is a well-known problem. We talk about it a lot, but frankly

:03:47.:03:53.

what we see now is that over ten years, the period of the SNP being

:03:54.:03:57.

in Government, the situation has got worse, not better. It matters

:03:58.:04:02.

because in the future, more and more jobs in the Scottish economy will be

:04:03.:04:06.

science and engineering based. In fact, we know that we will need to

:04:07.:04:11.

find around 170,000 more engineers over the next decade.

:04:12.:04:12.

Tennis - disappointment for Andy Murray at the French Open

:04:13.:04:15.

final in Paris this afternoon, as he was beaten by world

:04:16.:04:17.

It started well for the Scot, making his first appearance in the final.

:04:18.:04:30.

He took the opening set with relative ease, but the world number

:04:31.:04:37.

one was an incurious form, taking the third and set with the loss of

:04:38.:04:44.

only two games. Murray couldn't raise his game enough, looking

:04:45.:04:52.

crushed as the Serb became the first man in history -- third man in

:04:53.:04:57.

history to hold all titles at the same time.

:04:58.:04:58.

More unbroken sunshine across the country today.

:04:59.:04:59.

Kirsteen is here with the weather prospects for this evening

:05:00.:05:02.

And you're smiling, so it's good news.

:05:03.:05:07.

Yes, we had a top temperature today are 25 Celsius and clear blue skies

:05:08.:05:13.

across much of the country. This evening, there would be much by way

:05:14.:05:18.

of change. Any showers in the west will die out, some fine evening

:05:19.:05:23.

sunshine. Tonight, we hold the dry weather, perhaps some myths and

:05:24.:05:26.

local as feeding into the northern and coastal areas. Certainly not a

:05:27.:05:36.

cold night. Light winds. As we head into tomorrow, perhaps most, low

:05:37.:05:40.

cloud into the Northern Isles. Coastal areas may be somewhat

:05:41.:05:49.

stabbing to clear, perhaps if you thunder showers and it will be very

:05:50.:05:50.

warm again. And that's Reporting

:05:51.:05:51.

Scotland for now. Our next update's a little later

:05:52.:05:52.

than usual this evening, at 10:50. Until then, from everyone

on the team here in Glasgow,
