of a radical plan to shake up the student loan system, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
A man in his sixties has drowned tonight in county Armagh. | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
It's understood the victim was swimming towards | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
a small island on a lake in Bessbrook to remove two flags. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
Our reporter Claire Savage is at the scene for us this evening. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
The man got into difficulties swimming in the wake behind me | :00:20. | :00:34. | |
around 5pm. Locals tell me that a teenage boy went into the water to | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
try and rescue him. He managed to bring him back to the banks on the | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
lake where people try to resuscitate him. The fabulous crew then arrived | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
and took him to detail hospital where it was announced he had later | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
died. The man has been named locally as Oswald badly from the village, he | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
used to run a chip shop in the village and he is said to be a well | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
known local character. It is understood he had been trying to | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
swim to an island in the lake were recently to Irish tricolours had | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
been placed. Last week there were calls made for the flights to be | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
taken down, including by Sinn Fein who said that the flags would be | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
intimidating to Protestants. Earlier I spoke to two local MLAs who knew | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
the victim personally. The was popular, outgoing, well-known. He | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
was very likeable and a great character within the village. He was | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
involved actively in the life of the village and he will be missed but | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
the tragedy that surrounds his death will also leave its mark. Fairly | :01:46. | :01:52. | |
sad, that this tragedy has occurred, the deceased person was very | :01:53. | :01:59. | |
well-known in the area. -- very sad. At this point in time I would like | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
to express my deep condolences to his family and friends. In a | :02:06. | :02:14. | |
statement, Danny Kennedy added this evening that this was a very tragic | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
outcome to the controversies surrounding flags in the village. He | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
said this was too high a price for any family and community to pay. | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
While the breeze were still in attendance at the scene this | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
evening, the two flags were taken down off the island. | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
An inquest has been told that a drug which caused the death | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
of a 21 year old Banbridge man and 19 other people here is principally | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
The 20 deaths have been linked to pills known as Green Rolex | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
They are thought to have originated in the Netherlands but have only | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
The coroner said it is a matter of grave concern. | :02:48. | :02:56. | |
A senior DUP politician has strongly condemned the arson attack on | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
Sinn Fein's main constituency office in Londonderry. | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
Gregory Campbell said it was an attack on democracy and he linked | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
Other political parties said there can be no justification | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
Sinn Fein said the repair bill would run | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
into thousands of pound but it would not be deflected from its work. | :03:13. | :03:24. | |
It has happened to other parties, it has happened to our party, the | :03:25. | :03:31. | |
Alliance party and now to Sinn Fein. It could if it is not eliminated, if | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
people do not give the information to the breeze to secure convictions | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
against those responsible, it could end up in a worrying cycle of | :03:41. | :03:41. | |
violence. Engineers are still working to | :03:42. | :03:43. | |
repair one The Ravenhill Road was shut to | :03:44. | :03:44. | |
traffic last week after large holes or voids were | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
discovered beneath the surface. It's still not clear how | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
long it will take to fix. Louise Cullen has been watching | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
the repair operation. On the surface, drivers deal with | :03:54. | :04:08. | |
the destruction of a closed road. Underneath, this. Engineers captured | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
these images after 1000 cubic feet of gaps were discovered during sewer | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
replacement works. Voids have formed. Gaps of varying sizes | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
beneath the wheels of our cards. Each and everyone to be filled in, | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
hence the indefinite partial road closure. The actual rodeo riding on | :04:28. | :04:35. | |
is a reinforced concrete slab so even if a void or a hall opens | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
underneath it the slab is holding the integrity together. We have a | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
competent contractor and designer here who have come up with a | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
solution to repair this. The solution is pumping form concrete | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
into the holes. These are not uncommon in Belfast. I would | :04:54. | :05:00. | |
describe Belfast geology as late a bowl of porridge. It is soft | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
underneath but has a nice crust that you can put your spin on top. If you | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
break that crossed will sink into the porridge. It is here. We have | :05:10. | :05:18. | |
soft sands and when you break the crust the material underneath is | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
soft. The Victorian paperwork under our feet is nearing the end of its | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
life. The sewer replacement project is in everyone's interests but | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
commuters will hope that all of this is filled in before the schools go | :05:32. | :05:32. | |
back in one months time. Time now to head to Glasgow | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
and to the Commonwealth Games, where Stephen Watson can update us | :05:38. | :05:39. | |
on how Team Northern Ireland has Northern Ireland won another medal | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
today, a silver in Lawn Bowls which I'll tell you about in a moment, but | :05:43. | :05:49. | |
first to our impressive boxing team. 9 fighters are now just one fight | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
away from securing Tonight saw the first appearance of | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
Team NI's double Olympic medallist. Nial Foster was ringside | :06:01. | :06:08. | |
in the SECC. This is the moment the fans have | :06:09. | :06:27. | |
been waiting for. The charismatic captain of the Northern Ireland | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
boxing team Paddy Burns take his way towards the ring to start his | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
defence of the Commonwealth title. After four days of waiting he has | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
more than he is himself into Commonwealth action. The light | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
flyweight is known for his frantic pace and the Belfast man landed | :06:47. | :06:54. | |
combination. Look at the workrate. After C standing counts the referee | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
awarded the win to Barnes on a technical knockout in the third | :07:00. | :07:06. | |
round. It was my fourth fight this year and I have been waiting for a | :07:07. | :07:15. | |
long time. I had to fight in the Commonwealth and that is my first | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
one. It earlier today, fellow Olympic medallist Michael Conlon | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
also made the last eight after a unanimous points victory. Getting | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
over the landmark today, I was beaten in the wind -- in the last | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
game, so it was good to get over that. Now I can focus on winning. A | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
beautiful 12 commendation. Stephen Jolly joins the quarterfinal party | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
after a powerful performance as a Northern Irish boxing team continued | :07:48. | :07:48. | |
their dominance in the ring. Michaela Walsh will become NI's | :07:49. | :07:55. | |
first ever female fighter to box Ruairi Dalton is the first | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
in action tomorrow. Northern Ireland has won two medals | :07:59. | :08:06. | |
at the games so far thanks to Lisa Bradley in Judo | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
and the silver won today For Neil Bush, this was another | :08:10. | :08:27. | |
memorable games moment. His fourth medal in five appearances. But it | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
was a first medal for his team-mates. The silver medallists | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
for Northern Ireland. We did not expect this, but I am delighted with | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
it. You can only do it with the players you play with. There will be | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
a new crop of players coming along after myself. It will give them the | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
chance to get more medals along with the experience of these guys. On the | :08:57. | :09:04. | |
track, Amy Foster ran alongside two of the world 's fastest woman but | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
missed out on a place in the final of the 100 metres. One athlete did | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
make the final, hammer or Dempsey McGuigan. Our netball team set a | :09:17. | :09:25. | |
pre-game target of a top eight finish and after a win today against | :09:26. | :09:27. | |
English at the can still achieve that. But Northern Ireland must beat | :09:28. | :09:34. | |
the hosts, Scotland, on Wednesday. In shooting, David Beattie is still | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
on the hunt for a medal in the men's trap. And Northern Ireland 's | :09:38. | :09:45. | |
gymnasts were in action today, the tent at the halfway stage with Sarah | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
Beck on course for a place in the individual final. | :09:49. | :09:54. | |
Finally tonight away from the Games The Milk Cup Football | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
In the Elite section Northern Ireland have beaten China | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
in their opening game at the Ballymena showgrounds. | :10:01. | :10:01. | |
Two goals came in the first half from set-piece. | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
Josh Donnelly heading home from close range for one-nil. | :10:07. | :10:08. | |
Before a neat turn and shot from Sean Mullan double the advantage. | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
We'll be back live on tomorrows BBC Newsline. | :10:12. | :10:23. | |
Now for the weather forecast here's Cecilia Daly. | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
We have some rain on the forecast tonight, not a great day but just | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
enough to dampen the ground. A sprinkling of light rain across our | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
gardens. It means a mile and, temperatures now lower than the | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
mid-teens. Tomorrow there will still be damp weather lingering in places | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
but a good part of the day should be dry. We will not see too much | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
sunshine but brightness should come through from time to time especially | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
across the East. A lot of drizzly rain initially, leading to the West | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
as the morning goes on. It is likely that the farther east you are the | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
better chance you have of sunshine. In the south there will be | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
brightness and sunshine and there will also be some brightness over | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
south-east Scotland, north-east England, the Midlands, East Anglia | :11:17. | :11:24. | |
and the South of England. There will be light rain or some light showers | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
from the entertainer. The sample, identical fuel war model in Northern | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
Ireland there will be more of a breeze converge to today, so maybe | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
not feeling as close as it did today. Temperatures reaching 19 or | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
20 degrees. On Wednesday we are expecting showers initially in the | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
North, and there will still be a fairly noticeable breeze as well. | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
Generally the latter part of the week will bring more unsettled | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
conditions. Low pressure will be close by which will mean heavy | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
showers and perhaps a rumble of thunder. | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
That's all from others. Good night. | :12:03. | :12:04. |
