:01:57. > :02:01.search house to house for the surviving suspect in the marathon
:02:01. > :02:05.bombings. The other was fatally wounded in a shoot out with police
:02:05. > :02:09.during the night. They have been identified as brothers, aged 26 and
:02:09. > :02:13.19, living in the States for the last decade but with links to the

:03:05. > :03:10.angry and upset, calling on the younger brother to give himself up.
:03:10. > :03:18.I say, Dzhokhar, if you are live, turn yourself in and ask for
:03:18. > :03:24.forgiveness. From the victims, from the injured, and from those who
:03:24. > :03:27.left. Ask forgiveness from these people. The net closed around the
:03:27. > :03:32.two men hours after the FBI released video pictures of them at
:03:32. > :03:37.the scene of the Boston Marathon, where their bombs killed three and
:03:37. > :03:41.left many with horrific injuries. At 10:30pm, they tried to rob a 7-
:03:41. > :03:45.Eleven store near the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Minutes
:03:45. > :03:50.later, there were reports that the campus police officer had been
:03:50. > :03:56.attacked. Sean Collier, 26, was shot many times as he sat in his
:03:56. > :03:59.car and died soon after. As more police rushed to the scene, the
:03:59. > :04:03.brothers hijacked a car. In the chase that followed, explosives
:04:03. > :04:10.were thrown and shots were fired. The chase ended in Watertown, 10
:04:10. > :04:18.miles from Boston. On the usually quiet suburban streets, a fierce 55
:04:18. > :04:22.-- firefight, captured on a mobile phone. The police were taking no
:04:22. > :04:27.chances. The innocent owner of a hijacked car was, very time,
:04:27. > :04:34.treated as a suspect. Tamerlan Tsarnaev was fatally wounded and
:04:34. > :04:37.died in hospital. There were eight cops standing around one dive. They
:04:37. > :04:44.had him in the position. They threw him in the vehicle and whisked him
:04:44. > :04:48.away. What did you see?They were screaming at him. They all had
:04:48. > :04:53.their guns out. He was not complying, lying down fully. He was
:04:53. > :04:57.at the point where he was like this. By the time the copper came over
:04:57. > :05:03.and made me leave, he had finally laid down and that was it.
:05:03. > :05:06.whole town and become a crime scene. The younger brother escaped after
:05:06. > :05:11.the shoot-out. He should be considered armed and dangerous. He
:05:11. > :05:16.is a threat to anybody that might approach him. There is a 20 block
:05:16. > :05:19.perimeter or around the location. We are concerned about securing the
:05:19. > :05:23.area and making sure this individual is taken into custody.
:05:23. > :05:28.We believe this to be a terrorist, a man who has come here to kill
:05:28. > :05:33.people. The police will not let us go any further than this. They have
:05:33. > :05:37.sent a message on Twitter that they are searching door to door and the
:05:37. > :05:42.situation is very fluid. After a long night, dawn, and even more
:05:42. > :05:47.police. Hundreds of heavily armed officers searching for just one man,
:05:47. > :05:52.so dangerous, apparently, that the advice was to the whole of Boston
:05:52. > :05:57.to stay home off the streets. are asking you to stay home, stay
:05:57. > :06:02.indoors. We are asking businesses not to open, asking people not to
:06:02. > :06:07.congregate outside. SWAT teams have swarmed over house in Cambridge,
:06:07. > :06:10.four miles from the centre of the search, apparently the home at the
:06:10. > :06:14.brothers shared. The hunt for the killer is determined, a little
:06:14. > :06:18.desperate. At the moment it feels as if the country but not get back
:06:18. > :06:21.to normal until he is caught. The authorities in the United
:06:21. > :06:24.States are trying to build up a clearer picture of the two suspects.
:06:24. > :06:27.More details are emerging about their backgrounds, but so far
:06:27. > :06:36.little is known about their possible motive. Gordon Corera
:06:36. > :06:40.reports from Washington. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the 19-year-old
:06:40. > :06:44.who tonight is on the run from the authorities, leaving a trail of
:06:44. > :06:54.destruction in his wake. We now know that on Monday he and his
:06:54. > :06:59.
:06:59. > :07:03.But the question remains, why? What do we know about the men? The
:07:03. > :07:08.brothers lived together in Cambridge, a suburb of Boston. They
:07:08. > :07:12.had been in America for a decade. The younger brother had won a
:07:12. > :07:18.scholarship as a promising student of the finishing school. Do you
:07:18. > :07:22.recognise him? Yes, I do.One of his classmates told me she could
:07:22. > :07:25.not understand what had happened to him. If someone asked me to
:07:25. > :07:30.describe him I would have said nothing but good things. Knowing
:07:30. > :07:34.that he has the same person that committed such a horrendous crime
:07:34. > :07:39.and is continuing to do so, it is absolutely mind-blowing. Tamerlan,
:07:39. > :07:44.the elder of the two, at 26, who may have had a daughter, showed
:07:44. > :07:47.more signs of disaffection. In a photo essay on his boxing career he
:07:47. > :07:51.said, I do not have a single American friend, they do not
:07:51. > :07:55.understand them, there are no values any more, people cannot
:07:55. > :07:59.control themselves. The brothers are ethnically Chechnyan, from a
:07:59. > :08:03.troubled region where an Islamist insurgency has been battling the
:08:03. > :08:06.Russian state. But the family left Chechnya before one of the brothers
:08:07. > :08:12.was even born, and today their father said he was sure they had
:08:12. > :08:17.been framed. Discovering if there is a link to outside of the US and
:08:17. > :08:21.to any group is a top priority. A former senior official at the FBI
:08:21. > :08:25.and CIA a spoke to me. The priority is whether there is something else
:08:25. > :08:30.that we have not found, in terms of people. We will check their e-mail,
:08:30. > :08:34.phones, money to. Have they touched the ball over time who might have
:08:34. > :08:38.been active participants in this conspiracy, or passive participants
:08:38. > :08:42.and in contact with others. Investigators want to know if this
:08:42. > :08:46.was a home-grown attack by two disaffected American residents, or
:08:47. > :08:55.if there was direction from elsewhere. For now, it is all about
:08:55. > :08:58.finding the final fugitive. Let's go live to Mark Mardell. It
:08:58. > :09:03.has been nearly 20 hours that police have been searching for the
:09:03. > :09:07.final fugitive. What are they saying? They are playing their
:09:07. > :09:11.cards very close to their chest. The few hours ago they said they
:09:11. > :09:15.had New Leeds but did not spell out what they were. They have not come
:09:15. > :09:19.forward with anything as yet. They have quite the job. There are a lot
:09:19. > :09:22.of houses and they have to search them one by one. It does not just
:09:22. > :09:27.mean going up and asking if everything is all right. They have
:09:27. > :09:32.to do it room by room, searching the attics and cellars, presumably
:09:32. > :09:36.anywhere that anybody could hide. But you have to remember that it is
:09:36. > :09:39.about 10 hours since they looked down the rest of Boston and the
:09:39. > :09:46.suburbs around here, clearly an indication that they think he might
:09:46. > :09:49.have got away. One wonders how long you can keep the city on lockdown.
:09:49. > :09:52.Thank you. The widower of an Indian dentist
:09:52. > :09:55.who died after being refused an abortion in an Irish hospital as
:09:55. > :09:58.she had a miscarriage, has called her treatment "barbaric and
:09:58. > :10:02.inhuman". An inquest found that Savita Halapannavar lost her life
:10:02. > :10:05.because of systemic failures in her care. She had pleaded with medical
:10:05. > :10:09.staff for an abortion at University Hospital in Galway last October but
:10:09. > :10:19.died a week later from organ failure caused by an infection.
:10:19. > :10:23.Nick Higham has the details. It was a personal tragedy. Savita
:10:23. > :10:27.Halappanavar went into hospital complaining of back pain, 17 weeks
:10:27. > :10:30.into her first pregnancy. Eight days later she was dead from
:10:30. > :10:34.septicaemia. Her death shattered the happiness of a young couple,
:10:35. > :10:39.seen here in a family video. Today would have been their wedding
:10:39. > :10:43.anniversary. The inquest left her husband still angry that she was
:10:43. > :10:51.not given the abortion he believes could have saved her life. She was
:10:51. > :10:56.just left there to die. We were always kept in the dark. If she had
:10:56. > :11:01.known her life was at risk, she would have jumped off the bed and
:11:01. > :11:06.sought a different hospital. We were never told. And it is
:11:06. > :11:10.horrendous, it is barbaric and inhuman, the way that she was
:11:10. > :11:14.treated in that hospital. inquest heard of failings in the
:11:14. > :11:19.treatment she received at this Galway hospital, but it also shone
:11:19. > :11:22.a harsh light on the confused state of Irish abortion law. Doctors in
:11:22. > :11:28.island can perform an abortion if there is a risk to a mother's live,
:11:28. > :11:31.but when is that? One expert told an inquest that when she and her
:11:31. > :11:35.husband first asked for her pregnancy to be terminated her life
:11:35. > :11:40.was not at risk so it would have been illegal. Four days later, she
:11:40. > :11:47.was so ill that her life was in danger, but it was too late for an
:11:47. > :11:49.abortion to save her. In that circumstance, doctors often work in
:11:49. > :11:52.fear because they have no protection, even if they believe it
:11:52. > :11:57.is the correct treatment and the woman is asking for it and the
:11:57. > :12:01.foetus is not viable. They still cannot act. Abortion is a hot
:12:01. > :12:05.political issue in Ireland. Today, the coroner called for new
:12:05. > :12:13.guidelines for doctors on when they can intervene to save a woman's
:12:13. > :12:16.life. The government has talked of the legislation. I think you will
:12:16. > :12:20.have better maternal care from this to make sure something that this
:12:20. > :12:30.never happens again. It seems one young woman's death has ignited a

:12:43. > :12:47.here, this doesn't sound good, what do you make of it? This is the third
:12:47. > :12:51.such verdict by a leading credit rating agency. Back in February,
:12:51. > :12:56.Moody 's caused quite a stir by removing the AAA, the first time it
:12:56. > :13:00.had happened in modern times, and a couple of weeks ago standard and
:13:00. > :13:05.goers said it would not downgrade UK, reaffirming the AAA. Now Fitch
:13:05. > :13:09.has gone for this downgrade. The US and France have had similar
:13:09. > :13:13.experiences in recent years. They are saying the lack of growth in the
:13:13. > :13:17.UK is making it harder to reduce the deficit, so the Treasury's response
:13:17. > :13:20.is that it redoubles their determination to push on with
:13:20. > :13:24.deficit reduction. There is nothing in these reports about a Plan B. It

:14:21. > :14:25.near the factory and received the emergency call to the fire. He
:14:25. > :14:29.kissed his two-year-old son and said he would be back for dinner. 20
:14:29. > :14:33.minutes later, there was a huge explosion. His sister Louise said

:14:46. > :14:55.he said, no, he was the very first one in there, right on the
:14:55. > :14:59.explosion, he was there. And they said he did not make it out. And
:14:59. > :15:03.that's just... Our entire world right there, he was part of us, it
:15:03. > :15:07.is gone. She said she was angry with her brother. I felt like he knew
:15:07. > :15:14.better than to go in there and do something like that, knowing how
:15:14. > :15:18.dangerous it was. But he did not put that thought in his head. He just
:15:18. > :15:24.went in and did... He thought about other people first, he did not think
:15:24. > :15:28.about anything else. There is very little left of the factory which was
:15:28. > :15:35.once in an isolated area before the town grew around it. The force of

:15:38. > :15:43.tonight up to 60 people may still be unaccounted for. Emergency centres
:15:43. > :15:49.have been set up for the many who have lost homes, but few have come.

:18:58. > :19:05.interviewed in November but his name was not released. Matt Prodger
:19:05. > :19:09.reports. I am on a wonderful Welsh adventure
:19:09. > :19:14.as I discovered... Britain's most famous Australian in one of his more
:19:14. > :19:19.recent appearances, Rolf Harris is 83 now, and he has been on
:19:19. > :19:22.television for 60 of those years. Last November, police investigating
:19:22. > :19:26.allegations of sexual offences searched his home here beside the
:19:26. > :19:31.River Thames in Berkshire. He was later questioned at a police station
:19:31. > :19:36.and formally arrested at the end of March. In the five months since
:19:36. > :19:40.police arrived here at his house to carry out a search, he has made no
:19:40. > :19:46.public comment either on the allegations against him or the
:19:46. > :19:49.police investigation. Today was no different. The origins of the
:19:49. > :19:53.investigation lie in the case of Jimmy Savile, who was thought to
:19:53. > :19:56.have sexually abused hundreds of people, but the police have made
:19:56. > :20:00.clear that the allegations against Rolf Harris are not in the same
:20:00. > :20:10.category and it is understood they relate to one person, a female. He
