attack in the Swedish capital Stockholm.

Chris Bevington, who was 41, was among four people killed

when a hijacked lorry crashed into a department store.

Today, as thousands attended a vigil for those who died,

more details have been emerging of the man behind the attack.

think. A chance to reflect on jumbled emotions, on uncomfortable

feelings, and to consider lives lost in a few terrible moment. Chris

Bevington was one of those killed. A father to two young boys who moved

to Sweden to build a life a family and a career working for music

truck was hijacked and used as a weapon. A Belgian and two Swedish

citizens were also killed. Police have revealed more about the

as well in the city's response. It -- applause for the police and a

message for those who threaten the way of life here. If we become

scared, we play into their hands. This is a good picture of how Sweden

reacted. So far, that reaction has been solid. But tougher tests could

still come. It will come as no surprise that

those who died were not just Swedish citizens. The fact that foreigners

were affected as well. This is a modern city, but the revelation that

There's been a data breach at the payday loan firm

Wonga, involving a quarter of a million customers.

Personal details leaked include home addresses and bank details.

What happened? Wonga were made aware that someone from outside the

company had tried to access sensitive data, names, addresses and

sort codes, e-mail addresses and the final four digits of credit cards.

Wonga, famous for its high interest loans or people with poor credit

records, has apologised, but urged customers to be vigilant, watching

for unusual activity on their bank accounts. The numbers are huge,

270,000 people affected, the vast 270,000 people affected, the vast

of the final day so far. They are to friends, 18 holes from
