Good evening. A convicted drug trafficker from Swansea who is one

of the UK's most wanted criminals has been arrested in South Africa

after three years on the run. Martin Evans absconded from prison in 2011.

He had eluded police for three years but last night they finally caught

the man. Martin Evans was arrested in Johannesburg in a global

operation. Officers swooped as he was getting out of his car, his life

as a fugitive is now over. It is a message for criminals that they will

follow you wherever you decide to continue your operations. It is a

message for victims of his crimes that justice will now be done. It is

a measure of his crimes that justice will now be done and he will return

to the UK to serve his sentence. He set up this ostrich farm near

Swansea promising investors huge profit but it was all a scam, he

conned them out of ?1 million. Before he went to jail, he fled to

Spain where he started a drug selling business in Marbella. He was

eventually caught and sentenced to 21 years in jail. In 2011 he

disappeared after failing to return from a weekend in prison. -- out of

prison. It sparked an international search where he was finally tracked

down in South Africa. One of the UK's most wanted criminals finally

brought to justice. A 16-year-old boy has been charged with two counts

of winding after two men were charged -- stabbed on Friday night.

breath. Those frantic few seconds must have felt like an eternity.

After four hours in the saddle it was the Welsh cyclist to cost the

line first, the first Welshman to win eight gold in cycling at the

Common of games. It was exciting. I only raced for Wales once before

this in my whole senior career. It was the fifth gold medal for Wales.

Along with 11 silvers and 20 bronze, it is the best ever hole for

Wales. The shadow was blown away by this Scottish wind, no vindication

is needed, it is glory for the athletes and coaches. The Batten is

handed over to the Gold Coast in Australia. Tonight Wales will

reflect on an unforgettable fortnight in Glasgow. Now the

weather. After a lot of rain for the start of August it is much drier

today. Largely fine with sunny spells. There may be be able cloud

with isolated showers tomorrow. Tuesday might start dry but showers

developing and becoming more widespread as the front approaches

from the south-west. Wednesday will have a mix of sunny spells and

showers. Looking more unsettled later in the week. That is all. Good

night. Good evening. Many of us had a

decent second part of the weekend, particularly so for England and

Wales, rather different from Scotland and Northern Ireland. We

saw our whole rash of
