They were throwing them as hard as they could over the fencds | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
of B and Homebase, or actually climbing up onto the | :02:05. | :02:06. | |
shelving that ran alongside, cutting a hole and pushing them through | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
The group were caught out when undercover police officers | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
As we followed the evidence we found more `nd more | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
Within six to eight weeks wd were starting to realise quite how wide | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
this was going to be and it significantly changed how we | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
12 defendants in total were sentenced today for their p`rt | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
For much of it, most of defdndants had to sit in seats normallx | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
reserved for the jury because there was not a dock big enough | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
George Mason received the longest sentence of fivd years. | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
His accomplices, Mark Bowers and Kevin Owen, got three and a half, | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
but for each of their roles in this criminal eBay enterprise, tonight | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
The leader of a school trip to the Arctic in which a Salisbury | :02:52. | :03:02. | |
teenager was killed by a polar bear has been describing the att`ck. | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
Michael Reid told an inquest how he'd tried to shoot the bear | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
as it mauled Horatio Chappld, but his rifle wouldn't fire. | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
When the animal then attackdd him, he tried to gouge | :03:15. | :03:16. | |
Other members of the expedition also gave evhdence. | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
We heard from Michael Reid this morning, the expedition leader who | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
described in some detail about what happened on that morning of August | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
5th three years ago, when the polar bear rampaged through the c`mps they | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
had set up on this remote glacier near the Arctic Circle. | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
He said he woke in the early morning to shotts | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
of bear attack from some of the teenagers that were camping nearby. | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
He said he rushed out of thd tent, grabbed a rifle en route and, | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
when he got outside, he said he saw this large polar bear | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
He said he tried repeatedly to shoot the animal but, as you say, | :03:53. | :04:00. | |
He then went on to describe how the bear turned | :04:01. | :04:09. | |
on him, how he ended up wrestling with the animal and trying to gouge | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
Eventually, the bear moved off, he said he did not know why. | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
He picked up the rifle and managed to shoot it dead. | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
This afternoon we heard frol the second leader, the mountain leader | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
He explained how he too had been attacked by the bear, | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
he said he had been woken bx the commotion in the early lorning. | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
He had gone outside and heard Michael Reid say | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
At that point he threw some rocks at the bear to scare it off. | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
The bear turned on him and knocked him to the ground, and he s`id that | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
is when he came face`to`facd with the polar bear because its paws were | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
resting on his shoulder and its claws were swiping his face | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
Both of them have talked about the safety precautions used in the camp. | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
Michael Reid particularly t`lked about the trip wire system, | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
a system used around the calp that sets off flares and alarms to try | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
and alert anyone to intruders, of course in this case polar bears. | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
He said he knew the system was faulty, but he was | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
happy with the modifications the group had made with papdrclips. | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
He said he had checked it the night before and would not have | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
gone back to his tent if he had been in any way unhappy with it. | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
We'll be hearing more witnesses tomorrow, some friends of Horatio | :05:28. | :05:30. | |

18`year`old Robert Sebbage was stabbed on the Greek Island | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
Stelios Morfis had previously been convicted of manslaughter | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
but today an appeal court overturned that verdict and convicted him | :05:55. | :05:56. | |
of murder in the third degrde, increasing his sentence to 06`years | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
The government has confirmed it is going ahead with plans to convert | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
the hard shoulder of the M3 motorway into a fourth traffic lane. It | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
affects a 13 miles stretch between Farnborough and the M25. It's | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
claimed it will increase capacity bx a | :06:15. | :06:16. | |
third and improve journey times bx three | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
The work starts in November. It will take about two | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
We're back tomorrow during BBC Breakfast and there's more | :06:27. | :06:32. | |

Now Alexis is here to tell ts how the rest of the week is looking | :06:35. | :06:42. | |
A mainly dry night to come, still the risk of the odd thunderstorm, | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
which will clear through thd early hours of the morning and we will see | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
Under the clear skies where we have had showers today, | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
with there being a lot of moisture in the air, there is a risk of mist | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
Temperatures in towns and cities will be higher than | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
the countryside, perhaps down to eight or nine Celsius there. | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
Through tomorrow, lots of dry weather, varying amounts of cloud | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
but a decent amount of sunshine and in the sun temperatures higher than | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
The day stays dry tomorrow, more cloud for eastern areas, then | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
The outlook ` we can expect some rain tomorrow night lasting | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
Thunderstorms are a possibility on Friday, but coming up next is | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
through the next few days into the weekend. Hot on Saturday with | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
thundery showers. Good evening, the rain in Rio is | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
matching the mood, I suspect, this evening. Here, we will take a day | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
off from the rain tomorrow, at least most of us. There will be sunshine | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
around. The showers will be back for the end of the week. Dry over night | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
virtually everywhere. Winds easing down in many places except towards | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
the North Sea coasts. The south west will keep a breeze going. Not a cold | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
night, temperatures holding 12- 4 degrees typically. A dry day | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
virtually everywhere tomorrow. Cloud breaking up to allow good spells of | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
sunshine coming through, particularly to Scotland, northern | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
England, Wales and the south of had west. Rain will edge in | :08:19. | :08:19. |
