Here, on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are.

Welcome to BBC London News with me Alex Bushill.

Police are investigating the death of a 10-year-old boy at a branch

The BBC understands that he's been named as Kaden Reddick.

He suffered serious head injuries in an incident involving

store furniture and died later in hospital.

Our Correspondent Duncan Kennedy reports.

This is Kaden Reddick who was said to have been on the first

day of his half-term holiday when the accident happened.

One relative was quoted as saying, he made me laugh and smile.

But the boy was taken to hospital with serious head

Officers say they're supporting the family at what they call this

Other shoppers at the centre today spoke of their sadness.

Just feel for his family, I really do.

Yeah, our thoughts go out to them really.

I feel quite bad for the parents because my daughter is eight,

it would be quite - it's very sad actually.

In a statement tonight Top Shop said.

Taking place in a shop inside a mall this was an extremely rare incident,

one that's touched people here as Kaden's family come

That's even though motorists produce far more per person.

It measures the type of pollution and how much we are

exposed to, and for how long for, depending how we commute to work.

This green box is measuring the larger particles?

Car drivers are the biggest pollutants, but because of filters

in the engine, they are the least exposed.

It is those of us who get the bus that are exposed to five

times more pollution because the engines keep running

But this is the greatest pollutant of them all.

The polluted air up above is sucked into deep

tunnels underground, with nowhere to go.

The deep tunnels on the Victoria and Northern lines are

It's emerged that a nine-year-old boy from West London

was investigated by counterterrorism officers - after he stood up

in class and pledged his allegiance to the so-called Islamic state.

Well, Dan Freedman joins me now and this raises all sorts

of questions, what exactly do we know?

Well, these were officers from Prevent and they're the team that

tried to stop people being radicalised before it's too late.

They deal with children, teenagers and adults, they've dealt with more

than 1,000 cases since 2012. This boy was highly intelligent, he

became curious about so-called Islamic State after the Paris

attacks at the end of 2015. Soon he was looking online at some of the

most depraved and violent content of Isis propaganda. His words are

spoken by an actor. The men were walking and then

they were hit and they were told to sit down and that's

when they cut their heads off. So on a weekend like,

because everyone was going outside and playing, so when they all gone

and the house was empty I would go and sit freely

in the living and search up. However, it was when he stood up in

class and declared his sympathy for so-called Islamic State that an

intervention was staged. A Prevent officer spent a year with him

visiting his home regularly, looking at online content with him and

essentially deradicalising him and after a year she believed he was no

longer any kind of threat and his case was closed. It is surprising

there was intervention for someone so young, nine years old.

Absolutely. In a sense Prevent say that's why he was so vulnerable. If

he had gone to a chat room online and met with the wrong people he

could have been even more radicalised than he was having

already watched this violent content and that's the reason they say it

was important to intervene at this stage. Thank you very much.

The death of Anita Szucs, Ben Wales and Karla Roman

all in London, all last week, has brought into sharp

focus the dangers of cycling on our streets.

Today, the husband of Anita Szucs has spoken to this programme

Tamas and his wife Anita on their honeymoon in Japan last year.

The couple met at home in Hungary five years ago.

They moved to London together and were due

to celebrate their first wedding anniversary in just over a week.

She was always cheerful, happy and there was really no one

who wouldn't be affected by her personalitity.

Last Monday, Anita was killed after she was knocked over

on her bike in Edmonton in a suspected hit-and-run.

She had been returning from a late shift at work.

She always cycled because there were no night buses.

I mean, she followed all the rules, everything.

She always had her high-vis vest, lights, helmet,

I was really worried about her safety.

Anita was one of three cyclists killed after collisions

This was the protest on Saturday in Whitehall urging the Government

Tamas says he is speaking out because he wants all road

I just don't want this to remain just a story,

we need to keep this danger in the top of everyone's mind

Two men who were arrested in connection with Anita's death

Tamas says he plans to return to Japan, the place where

he and Anita celebrated their love story to scatter his wife's ashes.

We were going to go back within one or two years anyway and this way

That's it from me. I will hand you over to Wendy for the weather.

Thank you. Not much rain in the forecast over the next few days. The

little that we get might just be for tomorrow. We are going to get a few

showers moving across the London region. Despite that it's going to

be on the mild side once again. A bit of cloud at the moment, that's

been pushing up from the south-west, low cloud, so misty and murky over

higher ground and one or two showers into the early hours of the morning.

It's a mild night, temperatures no lower than seven or eight. You will

feel the benefit of that first thing tomorrow for your commute T will be

on the cloudy side. Through the day we will be watching a few showers

developing. They could be on the heavy side, thunder not out of the

question. Temperatures are in double figures and winds are from the

south-west so not too bad a day and it settles down towards the end of

it. Thursday, a mix of cloud and bright spells, probably a foggy

start. We have to watch that. Temperatures again will be in double

figures. A look at the outlook, there will be plenty more of this

weather into the weekend. A bit of fog around to watch out for.

Hammond with the national forecast now.

Good evening. There is some rain in the forecast but not a lot. Plenty

of dry weather to look forward to as we head to the weekend. Cloud
