A man's been attacked with an iron bar during a break-in | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
An armed gang targeted the victim's home in Glenarm last night, | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
A lucky escape, these holes in the front door were caused by men | :00:13. | :00:25. | |
wielding a sledgehammer. They were ransacking the house when they were | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
disturbed by the homeowner as he arrived back at just after 11pm last | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
night. Their victim did not want to appear on camera but he described | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
how they told him to get back and hit him on the shoulder with a | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
weapon. He feared they would hit him on the head and believes he is lucky | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
not to have been more seriously injured. The men made off in a blue | :00:47. | :00:53. | |
Volkswagen. It was stolen from a house in the Rectory Road area | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
earlier and was found later burnt out. Police say it is linked to | :00:57. | :01:05. | |
another attempted robbery and they have appealed for anyone with | :01:06. | :01:05. | |
information to contact them. A number of people have been | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
threatened by a gang armed with The men forced their way | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
into a house in Burneys Mews before No-one was injured but the occupants | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
of the house were left shaken. The police say nothing was stolen | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
during the incident. The Archbishop of Dublin, | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
Diarmuid Martin, has condemned those in the drugs trade and said that | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
gangland violence must stop. During a World Day of Peace mass | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
in Dublin, Archbishop Martin said there was a dangerous culture | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
of violence in Ireland He said that the violence among drug | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
barons in the city had There were sixteen gangland | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
murders last year. The fundamental problem is this | :01:45. | :01:58. | |
nasty, salt death, which is the drug' trade and people are feeling | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
that to keep their business they have every right to kill and above | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
all the real victims are those young people who go on drugs and | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
particularly vulnerable young people. | :02:11. | :02:11. | |

Now, reading out loud is part and parcel of this job, | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
but for some children, it's a terrifying prospect. | :02:33. | :02:33. | |
One school in County Down has taken a novel approach | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
Louise Cullen went along to find out more. | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
These listeners have many attributes. Good girl. Pause, | :02:44. | :02:52. | |
whiskers and a tail probably aren't the first that spring to mind. From | :02:53. | :03:00. | |
when she was a young dog she had a placid nature and she loves being | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
with people and especially children and I think she even picks up, you | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
know, if you are feeling a bit down or things like that she will come | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
over to you and I think she picks up on how the children are feeling as | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
well, which is lovely. They stop and look at all... She might not look | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
like she is working hard but the teachers believed she is. Re-search | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
has shown that reading with dogs is a way to help children who might be | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
reluctant and to give them a confidence of reading to the dog and | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
dog obviously will not judge the child for any mistakes they make and | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
it is also a novelty for the children as well pull stop a novelty | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
it may be but they are already seeing results. Sometimes I feel | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
scared reading out to people but I feel good reading to the dog. It | :03:49. | :03:56. | |
gives me confidence. I don't get nervous with that dog. Why is that? | :03:57. | :04:03. | |
Because she sits and listens. They seem just a bit more self-assured | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
some of the children are nervous reading aloud but reading to the dog | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
is very comforting and it is a lovely environment where they are | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
not intimidated in anyway. And as all dog stories should, this one | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
ends with a sleep. Hundreds of spectators lined | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
the harbour at Carnlough today as hardy souls took a New Year's Day | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
plunge to raise money for charity. The event was first held more | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
than four decades ago. Today the water temperature | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
was a not quite balmy 10 degrees. It has been a fine start for many of | :04:35. | :04:51. | |
us to the New Year and it will be called the night. It could be icy in | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
places. Especially in the north and west. A warning has been issued for | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
icy roads and there will be a widespread frost. If you are still | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
on your holiday this week, not a bad week at all. Dry and cold, Chile, | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
but some frost and ice at night-time. It is not ready until | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
the end of the week that things start to turn more unsettled. | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
Tomorrow morning probably the fastest of the week. A widespread | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
frost but lots of bright but whether in the day. You just need to wrap up | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
warm. A risk of ice in places, just bear that in mind if you are on the | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
road tomorrow morning. And icy start for much of northern Britain, part | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
of the Republic, too, with some frost but lots of fine, crisp | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
sunshine to come. Some wintry showers across the North West of | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
Scotland but one or two of those will affect parts of the north coast | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
as well and there will be that chilly breeze coming in off the sea. | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
Temperature is not much higher than six or seven Celsius. It could be | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
called again tomorrow night and some ice on Tuesday morning. Otherwise, | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
not a bad day. It will be as funny, still lots of right weather, some | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
patchy rain across heart of Scotland. A lot of dry weather on | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
Wednesday, two, just the odd shower in the West. Later on Thursday | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
things will start to deteriorate from the West and an Atlantic sister | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
moved in, which will bring wet and windy weather but probably not until | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
after dark. Between now and then, lots of dry weather ahead. | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
