A man in his 50s has died following a three vehicle crash | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
Five other people were injured in the collision on Colin road. | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
Two are said to be in a serious condition. | :00:20. | :00:22. | |

The Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams has apologised for using the N word | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
in a message on Twitter which referred to a movie | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
He later said he was comparing the plight of the slaves to | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
Here's our political correspondent, Enda McClafferty. | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
It was a film which stirred much emotion about racism | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
And last night, Djano Unchained stirred the Sinn Fein president | :00:53. | :00:59. | |
Gerry Adams to post a comment on Twitter, in which he used the N | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
word in comparing the struggle of slaves in the US to the plight | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
It provoked an angry reaction online and the post was quickly taken down. | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
This morning, the Sinn Fein president called a news conference | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
I acknowledge that the N word was inappropriate - | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
I stand over the context and substance of the point that | :01:25. | :01:31. | |
I was making, which is the parallel between the plight of people here in | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
Ireland and the struggle of people of African-American extraction. | :01:36. | :01:44. | |

-- Former Republican prisoner Tim Brannigan said our | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
politicians need to be more careful about the language they use. | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
The word itself was racist, but I wouldn't call | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
You know, it was a one-off remark that he got wrong, | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
and it is great to hear that he apologised | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
So, not for the first time, the Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
has been forced to issue a public apology because of controversial | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
And once again his political opponents north and south have been | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
Not so within Sinn Fein, where Gerry Adams is still very much | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
considered more of an asset than a liability. | :02:24. | :02:33. | |
A man has appeared in court charged with rape. | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
It follows an attack on a woman at a park near Dungannon | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
James Wright, of Derrylee Road in Dungannon was bought into and out | :02:40. | :02:48. | |
of Omagh Magistrates' Court under a blanket. | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
The defence described their client as being of extremely low intellect. | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
The attack happened in Peatlands Park, near Dungannon, | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
while the woman was walking her dog in broad daylight last week. | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
A detective claimed Wright had cycled round the victim before | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
raping her shortly before three o'clock in the afternoon. | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
It is alleged Wright put his hand over the woman's | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
-- mouth to stop her from screaming dring what was described as an | :03:12. | :03:20. | |
When the victim realised her attacker had learning difficulties, | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
she changed her tone - she asked him for his name, | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
but he refused, saying, "I can't tell you because you would tell | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
someone who would get me into trouble." | :03:30. | :03:30. | |
The court heard Wright, who's known to social services, | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
was assessed by a psychiatrist who deemed him fit to be detained | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
A bicycle and high-visibility jacket matching the description given | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
by the victim were recovered from the accused's home, | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
just a short distance from Peatlands Park. | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
Detectives are still searching for a bicycle helmet. | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
District Judge Peter King refused bail because of what he said | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
Wright was remanded in custody until later this month. | :03:53. | :04:03. | |

Sister Clare Theresa Crocket died when a school building collapsed. | :04:11. | :04:13. | |

Many people have spoken of how she inspired them. | :04:53. | :05:01. | |
Nuns from the order of which she was a member came to the city to pay | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
tribute to her. Everybody remembers her. She has been in communities in | :05:08. | :05:14. | |

in the Belfast City Marathon. For some it was a race | :05:42. | :05:49. | |
against the clock, for others the main aim was to finish, | :05:50. | :05:51. | |
and along the way raise All in full fancy dress and all | :05:52. | :05:56. | |

the finishing line here And first over the line this morning | :06:15. | :06:25. | |
was the Kenyan Joel Kipsang in a time of under | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
two hours 18 minutes. It's the third time that the Kenyan | :06:32. | :06:36. | |

Cork City by two goals to one in tonight's quarter final of the EA | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
Sports Cup. The weather forecast now, | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
with Angie Philips. Hello. It may have been a bit | :07:41. | :07:51. | |
fresher today, but lovely to see a bit of bank holiday sunshine. It | :07:52. | :07:53. | |
looks as though we will see more bright weather in the forecast this | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
coming week. A few showers around, I risk of some rain on Wednesday | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
night. Some good dry spells, sunshine coming through at times, | :08:05. | :08:06. | |
and temperatures in the day should be a little higher as the week wears | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
on. For this evening and tonight, still that fresh breeze blowing. | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
We'll continue to see showers edging in. Some good be heavy locally and | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
they will probably be more frequent towards the north and west, but | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
still gaps in between them. When we get those in the countryside, | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
temperatures could get down to 2 degrees. Low enough for ground | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
frost, but most places frost free. More sunshine tomorrow, a few | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
showers during the morning as they continued to run through on the | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
westerly breeze. For much of Britain and Ireland, it is that story of | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
sunshine and showers. The bulk of the showers from central areas north | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
was most frequent to the north-west and feeling kill in the breeze. | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
Relatively few showers further south with fairly light winds of 16 | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
degrees in London, probably feeling pleasant. The Northern Ireland, | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
fresher than that. The showers started to ease, so a bright and | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
breezy afternoon to come with temperatures around 12 or 13 | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
degrees. A bit of a change on Wednesday, and Atlantic weather | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
front living in. Once it clears, high pressure starts to build | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
towards the end of the week. Wednesday cloudier, windy, with rain | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
likely to move elated in the day. Then mainly dry for Thursday and | :09:17. | :09:18. |
