Police are tonight remaining on the site of an illegal rave

0:00:110:00:14

which attracted around a thousand people on Dartmoor.

0:00:140:00:17

Officers broke up the event near Bellever late last night.

0:00:170:00:21

Harriet Bradshaw joined today's police operation.

0:00:210:00:25

So, what we're going to do in a minute, John, is we're

0:00:250:00:28

going to go on the scene and serve the notices.

0:00:280:00:31

I hitch a ride in.

0:00:310:00:32

The police have concerns about safety.

0:00:320:00:34

About 25 officers have been on the scene all day.

0:00:340:00:37

Their objective - to shut this down.

0:00:370:00:40

But some revellers are asking why.

0:00:400:00:44

Basically... Everybody wants a laugh.

0:00:440:00:46

At the end of the day, we are living in a world

0:00:460:00:49

that is grey if you cannot have fun, and to us this is fun.

0:00:490:00:52

And to such a big community, this is fun.

0:00:520:00:54

We are not hurting anybody.

0:00:540:00:55

Why is it made illegal?

0:00:550:00:56

Is happiness illegal?

0:00:560:00:58

But there have been objections to the noise.

0:00:580:01:02

Local residents reporting it in the early hours.

0:01:020:01:04

So, this is the first sound system.

0:01:040:01:08

They've closed down voluntarily through negotiation.

0:01:080:01:10

But I will serve them a formal notice to make sure they can't come

0:01:100:01:13

back and start up again later.

0:01:130:01:15

At its peak, it's estimated 1000 were at this illegal rave.

0:01:150:01:17

Now there are worries for those who could get left behind.

0:01:170:01:20

A team of police officers will be here overnight to stop any

0:01:200:01:23

further disturbances.

0:01:230:01:29

We finished doing our line searches and thermal imaging

0:01:290:01:31

searches in the woods.

0:01:310:01:34

There's only one vehicle left on site and we have accounted

0:01:340:01:36

for the driver of that vehicle, so we are happy no one is in situ.

0:01:360:01:40

But we will remain on duty throughout the night to make sure

0:01:400:01:43

a rave doesn't re-occur in this area or other potential rave sites.

0:01:430:01:47

And it's getting very cold here now.

0:01:470:01:51

That's why the emergency services are going through the woods looking

0:01:510:01:54

for people who are still on site.

0:01:540:01:58

And making sure nobody goes unaccounted for.

0:01:580:02:03

A Torquay man who was shot in the head in Antigua

0:02:050:02:07

is being flown off the island for urgent medical treatment.

0:02:070:02:12

Christopher Tester was seriously injured during an attempted robbery

0:02:120:02:14

at his parents' restaurant on Christmas Day.

0:02:140:02:17

He's been in an induced coma ever since, and is tonight

0:02:170:02:21

being helicoptered to nearby Guadeloupe.

0:02:210:02:24

Friends in Antigua and here in Devon have so far raised ?40,000

0:02:240:02:27

to help fly him back to the UK.

0:02:270:02:31

The bullet went in under the left temple and exited by the right eye.

0:02:310:02:35

So they're very concerned about swelling of the brain

0:02:350:02:37

and things like that.

0:02:370:02:43

But he's not well enough at this stage to be

0:02:430:02:45

airlifted back to the UK.

0:02:450:02:48

They need to get him more stable before that.

0:02:480:02:53

A major search was launched involving lifeboats and a rescue

0:02:530:02:56

helicopter after a Mayday call to coastguards in Cornwall.

0:02:560:02:59

The crew of a rib called Whiskey One raised the alarm last night saying

0:02:590:03:02

they were taking on water off the coast of Bude.

0:03:020:03:05

The vessel is still missing, and coastguards say they need

0:03:050:03:07

to know if the crew made it to safety.

0:03:070:03:12

Conditions last night were a lot worse than they are today.

0:03:120:03:15

And, as you can see, they are still quite severe today.

0:03:150:03:17

Our RNLI crew do it on a voluntary basis.

0:03:170:03:20

They put their lives at risk to save people for nothing.

0:03:200:03:22

If this is a hoax, then it's a very severe incident,

0:03:220:03:27

and needs to be dealt with.

0:03:270:03:33

A 40 mile an hour speed limit could be brought

0:03:330:03:37

in across Bodmin Moor to cut the number of animals

0:03:370:03:39

killed on the roads.

0:03:390:03:40

Speed restrictions were previously introduced at Pensilva after 22

0:03:400:03:42

ponies died from being hit by vehicles in just one year.

0:03:420:03:45

It drastically cut the number of pony deaths, prompting calls

0:03:450:03:47

for a 40 mile an hour limit across the entire moor.

0:03:470:03:52

Time now for the latest on the weather -

0:03:550:03:57

here's Sarah Farmer.

0:03:570:03:59

here's Sarah Farmer.

0:03:590:04:01

Hello and a very good evening to you.

0:04:010:04:03

We have another cold night ahead of us.

0:04:030:04:05

Some patchy frost in parts, and it looks like we could see some

0:04:050:04:08

mist and fog as well.

0:04:080:04:09

The most prone areas to the east of our region,

0:04:090:04:12

and here we do have a yellow weather warning in place from the Met Office

0:04:120:04:15

for some foggy conditions.

0:04:150:04:16

That's valid from midnight right through until midday

0:04:160:04:18

tomorrow morning.

0:04:180:04:19

Here especially a grey start to the day, some

0:04:190:04:21

of the fog could linger on.

0:04:210:04:23

Further west faring better for some good brightness.

0:04:230:04:25

And to the Channel Islands too, perhaps mist first thing,

0:04:250:04:28

but some brighter skies developing as the day draws on.

0:04:280:04:30

Temperatures peaking at nine or 10 degrees.

0:04:300:04:32

Taking a look ahead, that warning is in place

0:04:320:04:35

until midday tomorrow, but it looks like we will see some

0:04:350:04:39

brighter skies later on.

0:04:390:04:41

Then through the tail end of this week, much cloudier conditions

0:04:410:04:44

and feeling a little cold at times.

0:04:440:04:45

Brighter skies on the way for 2017.

0:04:450:04:48

That's all from the late team.

0:04:530:04:54

From all of us here, have a good night.
