112. The spot five people have been waiting for almost 20 hours. The | :01:01. | :01:02. | |

there are more than 20 people waiting on trolleys this evening, | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
the longest wait for anyone being 23 hours. Triage, assessing someone's | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
condition on arrival, should happen fairly quickly, perhaps within 15 | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
minutes. At times tonight, it has been taking 60 minutes. The trust | :01:22. | :01:25. | |

secondary schools in Omagh. It was the routine school run | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
that almost ended in horror. The bus taking 48 pupils to Omagh | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
ended up on its side in this field. A car also involved in the crash | :01:58. | :02:01. | |

outside Drumquin. One young passenger | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
described what happened. It was just like flashing | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
before your eyes. I am sure everybody is just | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
happy that we are here. I was not even worried about myself, | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
I was worried for everyone else Around half | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
the children were taken to the local hospital and the rest, including the | :02:20. | :02:26. | |
bus driver and driver of the car, Remarkably, | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
nobody had serious injuries, but it I just went straight to | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
the hospital. What are your thoughts, it must | :02:37. | :02:44. | |
have been a terribly anxious time? You worry every time they go out | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
the door but they still have to go An investigation to establish the | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
cause of the crash is now underway. The one thing I do know is that on | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
this stretch of the road, as traffic is coming towards Omagh at that time | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
of the morning and particularly when it was a bright morning, there would | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
have been a little sun and whether this was a factor, | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
I don't know. It is a fairly flat straight stretch of road | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
and locals tell us that it is not The priority now is | :03:15. | :03:18. | |

but spoke to the BBC's Talkback I was disgusted, | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
it is just not nice. If it was done deliberately, | :04:15. | :04:23. | |
it is a disgrace. Locals have reacted angrily to | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
the news. The community are outraged | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
by what has happened. They have spoken out in support | :04:32. | :04:34. | |

the destruction of six cars The charred remains of a white | :06:22. | :06:40. | |
Renault Clio, just one of six cars that were badly damaged in the | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
University area of the weekend. Two cars were set alight and badly | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
damaged in the holy lands in the early hours of Saturday morning. The | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
man who owns this car did not want to appear on camera but he told me | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
he returned home from a night out on Friday to find his vehicle still | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
smouldering after it has been set alight. He is from France and only | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
planned to live here performance. Now he says he doesn't know how he | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
will get his belongings back home. Cars were also burned in other | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
nearby streets around 20 for hours later. This black BMW was set on | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
fire shortly after midnight on Sunday. Around the same time, other | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
carriers on Damascus Street were destroyed. One student returned from | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
a friends house to be told her car on fire. Today this was all that | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
remained. The six car to be burnt out was across the Ormeau Bridge. It | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
was torched in the early hours of this morning, not long after | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
midnight. The police say they are investigation is at an early stage | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
but hate crime has been ruled out. It is totally necessary that the | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
Fire Service and police attend these things. The risk to nearby Robert | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
Lee and nearby cars is very serious. One car on fire and said | :07:56. | :08:02. | |
another car on fire and houses too. You have to take it seriously but it | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
is a needless act and a waste of resources. The police also say there | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
is nothing to suggest one person was behind the attacks. They have | :08:11. | :08:12. | |
appealed for anyone with information to contact | :08:13. | :08:13. | |
They're having some rain in the next couple of days and cloud as well but | :08:14. | :08:39. | |
there will be some good temperatures in the next few days. The first | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
batch comes along tonight, some of it patchy in places and some of that | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
giving the odd burst but not too chilly with temperatures in double | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
figures. Temperatures may dip to seven or 8 degrees but still fairly | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
mild. Tomorrow, once rain clears, there will be dry weather for a few | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
hours before the next rain comes in on. Even that first batch of rain | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
could linger across parts of the south-east were good part of the | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
morning before clearing away and that dryer and brighter weather | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
sucks in behind. The rain band edges across the Republic of Ireland into | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
northern England but the rest of England and Wales will have a fine | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
day with temperatures around 20 Celsius. Behind the rain we will | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
have a dryer gap for a time and it will be further spells of rain | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
moving into the north-west of Scotland. For Northern Ireland, is | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
dryer for a few hours in the afternoon. It will be fresher as | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
well with temperatures of 14 degrees. The next batch of rain | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
moves in in the afternoon and evening. Once it clears out of the | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
way, but a lot of rain in the forecast for the rest of the week. A | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
lot of cloud but hopefully some bright spells as well. | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
