Good evening to you ` I'm L`ura Trant with the news in the South.

:00:11.:00:14.

A BBC South investigation h`s found children as young

:00:15.:00:17.

as ten are being reported to the police for sharing explicit photos

:00:18.:00:20.

of themselves and fellow pupils over mobile phones and social media.

:00:21.:00:22.

On some occasions, police have begun prosecuting

:00:23.:00:26.

In Dorset, officers have latnched a schools crackdown,

:00:27.:00:32.

Our Home Affairs Corresponddnt Emma Vardy has this exclusive report

:00:33.:00:39.

Some of the scenes are playdd by actors.

:00:40.:00:43.

I knew what was going on was really, really wrong, but he always used to

:00:44.:00:47.

blackmail me into doing stuff I did not want to do.

:00:48.:00:52.

In private messages over Facebook, 14`year`old Lizzie,

:00:53.:00:56.

whose name we have changed, told us that she sent explicit

:00:57.:00:59.

I remember one night we had a massive argument and then he

:01:00.:01:05.

messaged me on Facebook sayhng yeah, we can forget all about this if you

:01:06.:01:09.

He forced me so much. Lots of pressure.

:01:10.:01:25.

He wouldn't talk to me if I wouldn't send them to him.

:01:26.:01:27.

He wouldn't talk to me for three days.

:01:28.:01:29.

Eventually, Lizzie's mother saw the pictures, and contacted the police

:01:30.:01:42.

who spoke to both teenagers and deleted the photographs. We spoke to

:01:43.:01:48.

police forces across the Sotth to see how it is being dealt whth.

:01:49.:01:54.

Under the Freedom of Information Act, we obtained details

:01:55.:01:56.

of sexting incidents reportdd by teachers showing a sharp rise

:01:57.:01:58.

Schools told me that they h`ve been confiscating and checking

:01:59.:02:02.

youngsters? phones and deleting pictures in front of parents

:02:03.:02:04.

and the children involved and say that they are increasingly referring

:02:05.:02:07.

Last year, Thames Valley Police dealt with 40

:02:08.:02:18.

They dealt with 66 cases last year, more than the year before. They say

:02:19.:02:27.

that they have dealt with students as young as ten years old sdnding or

:02:28.:02:34.

receiving indecent images. The police say that whether or not the

:02:35.:02:40.

children are consenting, it is a criminal offence. But they say that

:02:41.:02:43.

they want to educate rather than criminalise children.

:02:44.:02:48.

But the Internet safety teal in Dorset say that we may well see more

:02:49.:02:54.

cases involving children ending up in court in the future.

:02:55.:02:56.

The Department for Education says children will

:02:57.:02:58.

soon be taught about staying safe online from the age of five.

:02:59.:03:01.

Earlier, we asked Jonathan Taylor, a former Metropolitan officdr who

:03:02.:03:03.

specialised in child protection and now works as an advisor on

:03:04.:03:06.

This is something I have known about and that society has known

:03:07.:03:11.

about for a long time, many years, but we are still talking

:03:12.:03:14.

And the only thing that is changing is the percentage of the chhldren

:03:15.:03:18.

involved is going up, and the age of the children involved is gohng down.

:03:19.:03:22.

A lot more needs to be done, not just by law enforcement,

:03:23.:03:25.

but by schools and by parents to understand the issues and what can

:03:26.:03:28.

A man who absconded from Ford Open Prison in West Sussex two wdeks ago

:03:29.:03:39.

48`year`old David Blood walked out of the prison after being j`iled

:03:40.:03:42.

Yesterday, he was arrested in Southgate Street in Winchester.

:03:43.:03:46.

Tomorrow, Blood is due before magistrates charged with

:03:47.:03:50.

They say lightning doesn't strike twice.

:03:51.:03:55.

But try telling that to 15 families in Berkshire.

:03:56.:03:58.

They were flooded due to a burst water pipe three months ago and

:03:59.:04:01.

Having dried out, many had just started the work of

:04:02.:04:06.

Only to be devastated by another flood, from the same water pipe

:04:07.:04:13.

David Allard has been to medt some of the unlucky homeowndrs.

:04:14.:04:17.

When this has been your homd for more than 40 years,

:04:18.:04:20.

A lifetime of work and bringing up a family here. Sorry. At the loment,

:04:21.:04:37.

it is all for nothing. John and Dymphna's home flooded

:04:38.:04:38.

first on March the 6th. Until last week, the drying out

:04:39.:04:41.

and repairs were going well. We were plastering the wall, and

:04:42.:04:53.

then at 3:15pm, the pipe burst and the lads were trying to keep the

:04:54.:04:56.

water out. Both of the pipe bursts happened

:04:57.:05:05.

about 15 metres away, sending all the water down to these gardens

:05:06.:05:12.

The whole of the ground floor was submerged. You can see the two

:05:13.:05:17.

levels of flooding. We cannot believe it has happened agahn. My

:05:18.:05:23.

wife was in tears. Once was an accident, the second time, ht just

:05:24.:05:24.

should not have happened. I read the families a statelent

:05:25.:05:28.

South East Water gave the BBC. South East Water says it's

:05:29.:05:31.

investigating why the pipe burst We are doing everything that we can

:05:32.:05:44.

to stop this from happening again. They have not contacted us `t all to

:05:45.:05:48.

reassure us or offered `` offer an apology.

:05:49.:05:54.

South East Water are investhgating why the water burst happened again

:05:55.:05:59.

and acknowledge the distress that it has caused.

:06:00.:06:00.

But these families are unlikely to be home before Christmas.

:06:01.:06:03.

Two in three of the South's rail travellers think their journey

:06:04.:06:05.

Most passengers are also very dissatisfied with the way train

:06:06.:06:09.

In a detailed survey by Passenger Focus, overall satisfaction remains

:06:10.:06:12.

about the same as a year ago, with close to four in five of passengers

:06:13.:06:16.

The rail industry says the figures reflect performance during some

:06:17.:06:19.

of the worst winter weather since the railways were built.

:06:20.:06:22.

Onto cricket, and Hampshire have gone top of the T20 Blast South

:06:31.:06:40.

A quiet night come under the clear skies.

Temperatures in the countryside all fall into single figures.

:06:44.:06:47.
