Good evening. Police in Salford have appealed to the community to | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
help solve the murder of a university student who was shot | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
dead early this morning. The 23 year-old had been visiting the area | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
for the festive season. Detectives say he was killed in an unprovoked | :00:22. | :00:29. | |
attack. Naomi Cornwell is at Swinton Police Station. | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
What more do we know about the victim? | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
Police haven't named the date and yet, but we know that he was 23 | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
years old and from India. We believe he was studying at | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
Lancaster University. He had been on a short break to the Manchester | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
area, staying in a hotel nearby. Him and a group of Indian students | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
were walking along the lane behind me when they were approached by two | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
men who were on the other side of the road. There was no argument, | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
say the police, only a few words were exchanged between the groups. | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
But one of the men pulled out a handgun and shot the man at close | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
range. What have the police said about the killer? They described | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
the gunman as being white, in his mid-twenties and of slim build, | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
wearing a great Cup. The man with him was more heavily built and | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
wearing a black jacket. I need them to come forward and so render | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
themselves to justice. We will find them, I am particularly interested | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
in the man who was with him. He should come forward and say what is | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
going on. They are obviously extremely violent and the sooner we | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
bring them to justice, the better. Police say there is no indication | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
that this was a racially motivated attack, that they had no indication | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
of any motive at the moment. They have said they will be stepping up | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
patrols in the area in the next few days. | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
Thank you. A man's being questioned by police | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
after a house was badly damaged by fire and explosion at Huyton on | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
Merseyside yesterday. Nearby homes were evacuated after the blast | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
early on Christmas morning. The man who was arrested is in hospital | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
with burns. No-one else was hurt. A search is continuing for an 84- | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
year-old woman who disappeared from her home in Cheshire over Christmas. | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
Magdalana Whittaker, who's said to be very hard-of-hearing, was | :02:17. | :02:27. | |
:02:27. | :02:30. | ||
reported missing by a friend in Congleton on Christmas Eve. | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
Thousands of people went to the Boxing Day sales in the North West, | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
in the hope of grabbing a bargain, some queuing from the early hours | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
of this morning. 120,000 were expected through the doors of both | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
the Trafford Centre and Liverpool One shopping centre today. I came | :02:42. | :02:48. | |
here at 4am. I came at 5:30am. It was worth it, I got a few bargains. | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
Digby percent of everything, I was pleased. -- 50 %. | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
Football, and Manchester United had an emphatic 5-0 win over Wigan at | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
Old Trafford, but Manchester City remain top of the premier league on | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
goal difference, after a goal-less draw at West Brom. Liverpool were | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
held to a 1-1 draw by Blackburn whilst Bolton lost 2-0 at home to | :03:07. | :03:16. | |
Newcastle. Everton and Sunderland Tranmere's game was called off | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
after strong winds blew off the roof at the park. There is no date | :03:22. | :03:30. | |
It has been windy this afternoon with doubled figure temperatures. | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
We will hang on to them for one more day and then for the rest of | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
the week, they will dip down to single figures and the winds will | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
pick up. This evening will remain fairly windy. That will remain | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
until the early period. Rain will drop in by dawn. A mild night. | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
Temperatures still holding on to high single figures. Tomorrow looks | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
like another mild date. A damp start across Cumbria, Lancashire | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
and the Isle of Man. The rain will ease away by the afternoon. | :04:01. | :04:07. | |
Elsewhere, breaks in the cloud allowing some bright spells to come | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
through. Breezy, hopefully less windy in many places, and then for | :04:11. | :04:16. |
