:00:56. > :00:59.Good evening. 30 people are reported to have been
:00:59. > :01:02.killed in rioting in Egypt, after 21 defendants were sentenced to
:01:02. > :01:05.death for the country's worst ever football violence. Their
:01:05. > :01:09.convictions came after fighting at a match last year between a Port
:01:09. > :01:12.Said club, and a team from Cairo in which more than 70 people were
:01:12. > :01:22.killed. Our correspondent Aleem Maqbool has sent this report from
:01:22. > :01:24.
:01:24. > :01:34.the Egyptian capital. Whichever way this verdict went, it
:01:34. > :01:34.
:01:34. > :01:38.was going to reignite emotion. As the judge issued death sentences to
:01:38. > :01:41.each of the 21 people found guilty of murdering fans at the Al Ahly
:01:41. > :01:46.Football Club, there was joy and relief in the court house. But
:01:46. > :01:49.almost immediately, in Port Said, there was anger and violence. The
:01:49. > :01:59.families and supporters of the defendants who were from the city,
:01:59. > :02:02.attacked the police, and fought back. Hundreds are known to have
:02:02. > :02:08.been injured in the clashes, and a shocking number have been killed,
:02:08. > :02:18.including police officers. It was horrific violence in this city a
:02:18. > :02:19.
:02:19. > :02:22.year ago which started all this. At the end of a football match, home
:02:22. > :02:25.supporters attacked visiting Al Ahly fans who said they were
:02:25. > :02:29.blocked from getting out of the ground. Over 70 were stabbed,
:02:29. > :02:34.clubbed and kicked to death. In Cairo, outside the Al Ahly club now,
:02:34. > :02:41.people felt they had got justice. TRANSLATION: We witnessed death
:02:41. > :02:51.with our own eyes. Imagine if your friends go to watch a match and
:02:51. > :02:52.
:02:52. > :02:56.come back in a coffin. Thank God, now we are pleased.
:02:56. > :02:58.TRANSLATION: I am satisfied, but I think more people need to be
:02:58. > :03:06.sentenced to death, including the police officers who were involved.
:03:06. > :03:09.In the end, thousands gathered in their jubilation. There are huge
:03:09. > :03:13.celebrations here outside the Al Ahly club, now that fans have got
:03:13. > :03:16.the judgment they wanted. But a lot of these people have themselves
:03:16. > :03:24.threatened violence across the country, if things did not go their
:03:24. > :03:27.way. These scenes of joy in the capital are in marked contrast to
:03:27. > :03:33.the bloodshed there has been in Port Said today. As one of world
:03:33. > :03:36.football's darkest incidences continues to claim lives.
:03:36. > :03:40.Detectives in Plymouth are trying to establish how a man died while
:03:40. > :03:43.trying to rob a betting shop. Alan Levers had been pinned down by
:03:43. > :03:46.customers after he entered a branch of Ladbrokes, wearing a gas mask
:03:46. > :03:56.and holding a gun. Robert Hall's report contains some flash
:03:56. > :04:03.
:04:03. > :04:06.photography. Alongside a busy main road in the
:04:06. > :04:09.Plymouth suburbs, police have been piecing together the sequence of
:04:09. > :04:13.events which left a man dead and which brought emergency services to
:04:14. > :04:17.this betting shop yesterday evening. One question is whether CCTV inside
:04:17. > :04:20.the shop may have captured an incident which began when the man,
:04:20. > :04:24.armed with what appeared to be a handgun, burst into the bookies.
:04:24. > :04:34.His face, according to police, hidden by a gas mask. Investigators
:04:34. > :04:34.
:04:34. > :04:38.-- police have named the man allows a Alan Levers. And he was disarmed
:04:38. > :04:41.and pinned to the floor by quick- thinking customers. By the time the
:04:41. > :04:43.first response teams arrived, the man, in his fifties, was already
:04:43. > :04:47.unconscious. After calling an ambulance, police officers tried to
:04:47. > :04:57.revive him, but their efforts and those of the paramedics were to no
:04:57. > :05:01.
:05:02. > :05:06.avail. This appears to be an imitation pistol but it needs to be
:05:06. > :05:10.verified. I would like to add, however, there would have been no
:05:10. > :05:15.way of knowing this at the time of the incident. The actions taken by
:05:15. > :05:20.members of the public were brave, and showed a total disregard for
:05:20. > :05:26.their own safety. No one has been arrested or charged over the death,
:05:26. > :05:31.and legal experts say the customers who intervened probably will not be
:05:31. > :05:37.it -- prosecuted. It is extremely unlikely those people will face
:05:37. > :05:42.prosecution. They must have been in great fear. He was wearing a gas
:05:42. > :05:47.blast, they could not judge if he would have difficulty breathing.
:05:47. > :05:51.Tonight, as inquiries continue, police are appealing to anyone who
:05:51. > :05:55.can shed fresh light on this incident to come forward. In the
:05:55. > :06:05.meantime, senior police officers are stressing, as a matter of
:06:05. > :06:13.
:06:13. > :06:22.routine, evidence gathered will be passed to the Independent. --
:06:22. > :06:26.Police Complaints Commission. There's been more bad weather
:06:26. > :06:29.across large parts of the country, with heavy rain and melting snow
:06:29. > :06:32.making many roads treacherous. Last night, hundreds of people were
:06:32. > :06:35.stranded in their cars because of heavy snow across parts of Scotland,
:06:35. > :06:38.northern England and the Midlands. Stuart Flinders has more details.
:06:38. > :06:42.On the hills above Bradford, an early start for Darren Collet. He
:06:42. > :06:46.and his tractor were in big demand. How bad was it overnight, the snow,
:06:46. > :06:50.how quick did it come down? Within an hour and a half, 9.30pm, it was
:06:50. > :06:54.still snowing when I went to bed at 10.30pm. You were up at 5.30am
:06:54. > :06:59.clearing the snow? I got up at 4:30am, then set off to work. I
:06:59. > :07:03.went home in a tractor to make sure I could get to work. When the snow
:07:03. > :07:06.came, it was thick and fast, one foot in less than two hours in
:07:06. > :07:09.parts of Lancashire and Yorkshire. The M6 couldn't cope, the motorway
:07:09. > :07:12.closed in both directions near Wigan. Some drivers were stranded
:07:12. > :07:17.for hours. It is approximately 2am. The middle of the M6 motorway. As
:07:17. > :07:23.you can see, at the back of me, we have ground to a standstill. It is
:07:23. > :07:27.quite cold. We're in for the night. It is horrible, by the time I got
:07:27. > :07:31.to junction 25, it was at a standstill. There was no movement.
:07:31. > :07:34.As the snow and ice began to melt, a new danger, with river levels
:07:34. > :07:38.rising, the Environment Agency is warning serious floods are possible
:07:38. > :07:42.in many parts of England and Wales. The Environment Agency will be
:07:42. > :07:46.monitoring forever levels, a combination of the thought and
:07:46. > :07:48.heavy rain could cause serious floods. There is wet weather all
:07:48. > :07:51.over the country, flooded fields, localised flooding, high ground
:07:51. > :08:00.water, spring tides this week. A complete cocktail of issues and
:08:00. > :08:08.concerns to keep an eye on. There have been floods in parts of
:08:08. > :08:17.Carmarthenshire. The emergency services have dealt with 300 calls.
:08:17. > :08:20.The full impact may not be felt for another 24 hours.
:08:20. > :08:23.The Defence Ministry in Paris says French-led forces in Mali have made
:08:23. > :08:27.more advances against Islamists, who've been controlling large parts
:08:27. > :08:29.of the North of the country. Today, they took over the town of Gao, a
:08:29. > :08:36.major rebel stronghold. Our correspondent, Mark Doyle has been
:08:36. > :08:44.to Kona, the first town that was recaptured from the Islamists.
:08:44. > :08:47.Discarded Malian army uniforms litter the ground. When the
:08:47. > :08:50.Islamists invaded this first town in their push towards the capital,
:08:50. > :08:54.government soldiers put up a token fight, then ran. The counter-
:08:54. > :09:00.offensive was led by France. French jets screamed in. Their bombs lit
:09:01. > :09:10.up military vehicles. A heavy tank turret was tossed into the air like
:09:10. > :09:13.a toy. The pattern was there was a fight between the Malian government
:09:13. > :09:16.army, which had to flee because the Islamists had superior power. And
:09:16. > :09:20.then the French army intervened, from the air, attacking this place.
:09:20. > :09:28.A lot of these vehicles would have been destroyed by bombs from the
:09:28. > :09:31.helicopters or jet fighters. The Malian army have returned, and are
:09:31. > :09:40.proudly showing they have retaken this town, but only because of the
:09:40. > :09:43.French. This Malian lieutenant agrees. It was thanks to the French
:09:43. > :09:47.we retook his place, he says, and thanks to them, will take others.
:09:47. > :09:55.Amid the carnage, a small miracle. This taxi driver was saved by his
:09:55. > :09:58.fridge. He was caught in the short fire fight between Islamists and
:09:58. > :10:08.the Malian army. The bullets lost power, as they came through the
:10:08. > :10:10.
:10:10. > :10:17.freezer section. TRANSLATION: I was shot through the nose, if the
:10:17. > :10:21.fridge wasn't here, I would almost certainly have been killed.
:10:21. > :10:25.Time to go. The Malian army present once more, but tensions are still
:10:25. > :10:28.high. We weren't welcome for long. Thousands of people have taken part
:10:28. > :10:31.in a demonstration against plans to close a major Accident and
:10:31. > :10:34.Emergency unit at a hospital in south east London. Under the
:10:34. > :10:37.proposals, Lewisham Hospital would see its A&E and maternity units
:10:37. > :10:45.downgraded. It's part of a re- organisation aimed at rescuing a

:10:48. > :10:51.The Transport Secretary has come under criticism from within his own

:10:54. > :10:57.building a high-speed rail link from London to the north of England
:10:57. > :11:03.was "worth the upset it would cause". Patrick McLoughlin is
:11:03. > :11:06.expected to unveil plans to extend the line on Monday.
:11:06. > :11:09.The government says it will spend another �21 million on humanitarian
:11:10. > :11:12.aid for victims of the conflict in Syria. The announcement was made by
:11:12. > :11:15.the International Development Secretary Justine Greening on a
:11:15. > :11:18.visit to Jordan today. The UN says more than 670,000 Syrians have now
:11:18. > :11:22.fled the country. 6,000 have arrived at the Za'atari refugee
:11:22. > :11:32.camp in the last two days alone. From there, Rami Ruhay-em sent this
:11:32. > :11:42.
:11:42. > :11:47.A welcome break from the monotony at this refugee camp. Justine

:11:56. > :12:00.to the plate, warm words will not help these people, they need
:12:00. > :12:05.humanitarian money to help give them food, shelter and medical
:12:05. > :12:09.assistance. The new aid package will be split between those
:12:09. > :12:14.displaced within Syria, and refugees in neighbouring countries,
:12:14. > :12:19.with Jordan perceiving �10 million. Thankful for what they're getting,
:12:19. > :12:24.refugees are painfully aware of what they still need. TRANSLATION:
:12:24. > :12:30.We are very grateful to everyone who has helped Syrian refugees, but
:12:30. > :12:35.we haven't seen any of it. It is just talking the media. This camp
:12:35. > :12:38.has expanded into a large city. Every day, thousands of Syrian
:12:38. > :12:44.refugees arrived in Jordan. Every penny of aid is needed to provide
:12:44. > :12:50.for them. The United Nations says it needs half a billion dollars. It
:12:50. > :12:55.is not getting any easier. As long as the fighting drugs on in Syria,
:12:55. > :13:02.many more will escape death only to find destitution on the other side.
:13:02. > :13:06.And they will need all the help they can get.
:13:06. > :13:14.Sport now. For a full round-up of all the day's action, it's over to
:13:14. > :13:17.Olly Foster at the BBC Sport Centre. Good evening. We'll start with
:13:17. > :13:20.football, because we've had a big upset in the FA Cup. Luton Town
:13:20. > :13:23.have knocked out Premier League Norwich City, becoming the first
:13:23. > :13:26.non-League team to beat top division opposition since Sutton
:13:26. > :13:29.United beat Coventry back in 1989. Elsewhere, there were wins for
:13:29. > :13:35.Manchester United and Manchester City. Rob Heath reports, starting
:13:35. > :13:40.with the shock at Carrow Road. Luton Town have had few reasons to
:13:40. > :13:45.celebrate. Relegation from the Football League in 2090 following
:13:45. > :13:50.the natural irregularities was the low point. Now, a reminder of past
:13:50. > :13:55.glories, this must have felt like a cup final when. Who knows just how
:13:55. > :14:01.far they can go? For all their recent silverware, it is nine years
:14:01. > :14:05.since Manchester United last won the FA Cup. Fulham arrived at Old
:14:05. > :14:12.Trafford having won just twice in the 37 visits. Since then, they
:14:12. > :14:16.have generally surrendered. This time, they did so literally, Aaron
:14:16. > :14:21.Hughes here. United have been strangely off-target with penalties
:14:21. > :14:25.this season. Ryan Giggs showed how it should be done. The home side
:14:25. > :14:31.could have scored a hat-trick by half-time. They made up for after
:14:31. > :14:37.the break, with Wayne Rooney. Fulham allowed United to play and
:14:37. > :14:42.when that happens there is only one outcome. Another two more. United
:14:42. > :14:52.eventually ran out 4-1 winners. Their Manchester rivals are also
:14:52. > :14:55.
:14:55. > :14:59.through, leaving it late to beat Here are the other nine fourth
:14:59. > :15:00.round ties today. Everton and Arsenal needed late goals to get
:15:00. > :15:02.through. Huddersfield against Leicester is
:15:03. > :15:05.the only match that will need to be replayed.
:15:05. > :15:08.Non-League Macclesfield lost 1-0 to Wigan.
:15:08. > :15:14.The Premier League's bottom side, Queens Park Rangers, were humbled
:15:14. > :15:18.Hearts are into the Scottish League Cup final, after beating Inverness
:15:18. > :15:21.on penalties. It was 1-1 after extra time, and Hearts won 5-4 on
:15:21. > :15:25.spot kicks, They'll face either St Mirren or Celtic in the final.
:15:25. > :15:28.In the SPL, Ross County earned a valuable point at Dundee United. A
:15:28. > :15:33.stunning late equaliser by Richard Brittain at Tannadice saw them move
:15:33. > :15:36.The world number one Victoria Azarenka has won back-to-back
:15:36. > :15:39.Australian Open titles, after beating Li Na in three sets. And
:15:39. > :15:47.attention now turns to the men's final tomorrow, with Andy Murray
:15:47. > :15:52.facing Novak Djokovic. Andy Swiss reports from Melbourne.
:15:53. > :15:59.Finals don't get much crazier or more compelling. Crowd favourite Li
:15:59. > :16:06.Na powers to the first set. Before a dramatic twist, harp and Kohl
:16:06. > :16:11.went and so, it seemed, did her chances. After a 10 minute stoppage
:16:11. > :16:15.for Australia Day fireworks, another injury, to her head. She
:16:15. > :16:21.was tested for concussion but to the crowd's delight, she battled on
:16:21. > :16:26.and pushed her opponent all the way. It wasn't quite enough. Victoria
:16:26. > :16:30.Azarenka ultimately winning the title. Tomorrow, it's the men's and
:16:30. > :16:35.turn on centre stage which means Andy Murray, he has twice lost in
:16:35. > :16:39.the final here. This time he is a very different player. As Roger
:16:39. > :16:43.Federer discovered yesterday, Andy Murray has never looked stronger.
:16:43. > :16:49.He could soon follow his first Grand Slam title by winning a
:16:49. > :16:53.second, something no man has done for half a century. If I was to
:16:53. > :16:57.manage to do it, I'm sure it would be a great achievement. It is a
:16:57. > :17:02.hard thing to do. I know how nervous I was there for the first
:17:02. > :17:06.match here, there is extra pressure. He still has to beat Novak Djokovic.
:17:06. > :17:09.He did it famously in New York. If he can do it again, British tennis
:17:09. > :17:14.could be in for another night to remember.
:17:14. > :17:17.The mens' final will be on BBC One tomorrow morning from 8.15am.
:17:17. > :17:20.What a week it's been for England's netballers, after completing a
:17:20. > :17:23.series whitewash over Australia. They beat the world champions 58-51
:17:23. > :17:29.in the third and final Test in Birmingham. Before this series,
:17:29. > :17:32.they'd only beaten Australia twice. Russia won the International
:17:32. > :17:36.Athletics Match at Glasgow's brand new Indoor Arena today. But Dwain
:17:36. > :17:39.Chambers was one of the few British winners, finishing first in the 60
:17:39. > :17:49.metres, in his first outing of the season. Former 100 metre world
:17:49. > :17:50.
:17:50. > :17:53.champion Kim Collins was second. Just time to tell you that the
:17:53. > :17:57.Deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg, is among the guests on the Andrew

:18:15. > :18:19.The milder air moved into day. We will find the thought continues
:18:20. > :18:26.overnight as rain pushers East. We have a few thunderstorms in the
:18:26. > :18:33.west which will push east end the next couple of hours as the
:18:33. > :18:37.blustery winds push it along. In the east, temperatures will rise as

:18:54. > :18:59.afternoon, some heavy. Not that many showers in northern England.
:18:59. > :19:03.We will see quite a few showers pushing east across Scotland, some
:19:03. > :19:09.heavy with thunder, some sleet and snow over the hills. A similar
:19:09. > :19:15.mixture of sunshine and showers across Northern Ireland. In Wales,
:19:15. > :19:23.showers in the south of the country. They will get going in the
