Here on BBC One it's time for the news where you are. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Here in the East: Police and other agencies missed opportunities | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
after a baby was killed by a pet dog, a review found today. | :00:07. | :00:14. | |
After protests, will there be a U-turn on plans to close | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
main roads into Cambridge at rush-hour? | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
And the football stars tackling regeneration in Bedfordshire. | :00:20. | :00:27. | |
It was an aggressive dog and police knew about it but didn't act before | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
That is the conclusion of a special review into the death of Molly Mae | :00:32. | :00:39. | |
She was six months old when she was savagely mauled by the | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
Her mother and grandmother were jailed | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
over the incident but the report said nothing could have prevented | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
Emotions have run high ever since baby Molly Mae was | :00:52. | :01:01. | |
mauled to death by her family's pet pit bull, Bruiser. | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
When the child's mother and grandmother attended | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
court, relatives and friends repeatedly turned on the media. | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
Last month, Claire Reilly admitted owning a | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
Susan Olcott admitted being in charge of one. | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
But beyond the family, could the authorities have prevented | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
Today the results of a serious case review were finally | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
The family had contact with agencies and there were | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
An overall comment has to be that people needed to be more | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
People needed to ask the basic question as | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
to whether there was a dangerous animal in the household or not. | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
It is Northamptonshire Police who have | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
She alerted the RSPCA who e-mailed the police | :01:49. | :01:58. | |
The review cites poor practice among agencies and says midwives and | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
health visitors should have been more curious, | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
nothing suggests that any single professional could, or should, have | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
This lady lives opposite the house where the dog attacked. | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
She praises the bravery of the two officers who | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
tried to save the baby but says the blame must rest with the child's | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
She told me the dog would never attack her baby. | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
The next day, it did, so I was really upset. | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
You live opposite that house and the horror of | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
that night, what rings in your mind most? | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
You heard the dog howling as well, didn't you? | :02:41. | :02:48. | |
It was howling and it had attacked the grandmother | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
The serious case review said Claire Reilly had shown | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
a level of deceit when dealing with agencies but they said it couldn't | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
be proved that she had deliberately misled them about risks to her | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
It was conceded that the dots linking the various agencies were | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
The serious case review has come up with a number of | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
recommendations but they cannot be enforced. | :03:20. | :03:20. | |
For example they suggest that all midwives and health | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
visitors should proactively ask parents if they have pets in the | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
They suggest nationally that front line police officers should | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
formally recognise aggressive dogs as a potential danger to children | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
and it should be mandatory for vets to report their concerns | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
about any dangerous or out-of-control dogs they come into | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
It is Northamptonshire Police who have the most to learn | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
At the time Molly Mae was killed by the dog, they had | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
no formal policies or procedures in place to deal with incidents like | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
Transport bosses have backtracked tonight on plans to close six major | :03:57. | :04:06. | |
roads in Cambridge to peak-time traffic. | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
The scheme to reduce congestion caused uproar amongst | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
Our reporter is at one of the congestion | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
I am on Mill Road and the news will bring relief to the thousands of | :04:19. | :04:32. | |
people who signed a petition against the plans. It is called the city | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
deal, and eight point plan to cut congestion that is currently | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
is a problem that affects cities is a problem that affects cities | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
across the country. In Cambridge it is particularly acute. The ageing | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
road layouts means something as simple as getting to the work can | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
become a daily nightmare. Earlier this month, protests were sparked by | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
one aspect of the scheme, an idea to shut the city 's six main busiest | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
roads during the rush hour. The leader of the City Council defended | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
the plan, saying public transport would benefit. We need to reverse | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
the problem is that he has. But usage is falling because sometimes | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
people can get stuck in a bus for up to one hour so that is not visible | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
problem but it does mean striking a balance between both users, vans | :05:23. | :05:29. | |
moving around the city and cars. Does this mean the plans have been | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
totally abandoned? Now, a public consultation into the scheme has | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
just concluded and options including taxing commuter parking spaces and | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
building in more investment for the bus and bicycle networks are still | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
being considered. The City Council has always said doing nothing is not | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
an option. What is accessible solution to cutting congestion looks | :05:55. | :05:55. | |
like remains to be seen. Around 300 patients had their | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
hospital appointments cancelled today because of a problem | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
with the computer system. Peterborough City Hospital declared | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
a critical incident this morning as doctors | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
couldn't access patient records. The problem has now | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
been resolved but they are looking at what actions | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
to take over any future technical We've got all our patients | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
cared for on the wards and we have clearly printed off | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
anything we need to print off so any slight problems with | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
computers but we've never this and I hope we never experience | :06:28. | :06:36. | |

Mark Noble, have formed a development company called Legacy, | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
their first project is the At its heart will be | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
a new Sports Academy and | :07:38. | :08:06. | |
community facilities. Some people think it's just | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
about a big housing estate, is Have you heard us | :08:09. | :08:10. | |
mention housing yet? We haven't, so obviously housing | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
is part of it but Before anything is agreed upon, | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
we know the local community have It's hoped up to 50% | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
of the housing will be affordable to meet | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
the needs of local people. Those we spoke to agree | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
change is needed. There doesn't seem to be much | :08:29. | :08:31. | |

better for the kids It is all well and good | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
building houses, but there's nothing | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
for the kids to do. Very few details about | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
the scheme have so far been decided | :08:53. | :08:54. | |
and questions remain It is council land, | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
currently restricted by the Department for Education so | :08:58. | :09:07. | |
there would be a number of hurdles to get through before | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
the land is released but we are confident | :09:12. | :09:13. | |
the Government will help us | :09:14. | :09:15. | |
to overcome those hurdles. The only council | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
in port at this time would be our land, | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
which we are excited to use. It is an unusual | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
partnership of these We are told work could start | :09:28. | :09:29. | |
on the site by summer 2018. The Northamptonshire | :09:30. | :09:40. | |

in to save the firm and now Fairline is looking to hire | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
another 20 workers. There were some showers across | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
the region earlier and most of those have now cleared away so the rest | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
of the night does look largely dry. There will be some clear spells | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
developing as well so this could be Temperatures down to six Celsius | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
in some parts of the region. In the countryside | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
it could be colder. We still have high | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
pressure trying to build in so essentially, a lot | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
of fine and dry weather expected It may turn cloudy at times | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
and there is the risk of some showers developing but the bulk | :10:27. | :10:30. | |

for the weekend, lots of fine and dry weather with some | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
sunshine around, a little on the cool side with | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
highs of 13 degrees. Overnight, temperatures falling away | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
into single figures. The outlook, mostly dry for the next | :10:58. | :11:04. | |

western areas but running down through North Sea coasts again, a | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
frequent rash of showers. Some coming further inland but look at | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
this picture, a typical story of the Norfolk coast this afternoon, choppy | :11:35. | :11:37. | |

night here and showers die back towards the Norfolk and Suffolk | :11:43. | :11:44. | |
coast. Elsewhere, clear skies. | :11:45. | :11:46. |
