Violence broke out in East London over the death of a man

:00:21.:00:25.

after he was restrained by police a week ago.

:00:26.:00:27.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission is investigating

:00:28.:00:30.

the death of 20-year-old Rashan Charles.

:00:31.:00:32.

Last night, bottles and fireworks were thrown at officers in Hackney.

:00:33.:00:35.

The tension had been building all afternoon.

:00:36.:00:43.

A peaceful protest about the death of a young man in police custody

:00:44.:00:47.

in East London beginning to turn into something else.

:00:48.:00:53.

The police were out in force trying to maintain calm,

:00:54.:00:56.

By ten o'clock, a fleet of police vans was facing a burning

:00:57.:01:04.

Hundreds of officers trying to keep people back.

:01:05.:01:13.

Police in full riot gear repeatedly tried to clear the street.

:01:14.:01:21.

Mounted officers were brought in too.

:01:22.:01:25.

It took at least another hour for some kind of order

:01:26.:01:27.

to be established, debris still smouldering on the streets.

:01:28.:01:30.

The confrontation was sparked by death of Rashan Charles.

:01:31.:01:35.

He was chased into a shop by police a week ago.

:01:36.:01:37.

Officers say he tried to swallow something.

:01:38.:01:39.

There was a struggle and he became ill.

:01:40.:01:43.

Just over an hour later, Rashan Charles was declared dead.

:01:44.:01:45.

He is the third young man to die after being stopped by police

:01:46.:01:52.

It has stirred up long-standing grievances here.

:01:53.:01:56.

They're angry and they're confused because they're not

:01:57.:01:58.

They have to carry knives because they're living in fear.

:01:59.:02:04.

They're forced into situations where they don't understand how

:02:05.:02:11.

to live, how to make money, how to work for what they want

:02:12.:02:14.

because they don't want to work for the system.

:02:15.:02:16.

The council has been cleaning up and trying to move on.

:02:17.:02:20.

It spent the week trying to ease concerns in this community.

:02:21.:02:24.

The Charles family has warned that hostile actions

:02:25.:02:26.

People are gathering in Hackney again today.

:02:27.:02:32.

I'm quite worried that people want to come from outside of Hackney,

:02:33.:02:38.

haven't been part any of those protests this week and haven't

:02:39.:02:41.

listened to the family's requests and don't necessarily

:02:42.:02:43.

have the motivation of having a peaceful protest.

:02:44.:02:45.

So I think as long as it remains peaceful, people should be able

:02:46.:02:48.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission says it will seek

:02:49.:02:52.

to answer the questions from Rashan Charles' family

:02:53.:02:55.

about his death and will follow the evidence wherever it leads.

:02:56.:02:57.

The North Korean leader Kim Jong-un claims any target on the US mainland

:02:58.:03:03.

It follows his military's latest intercontinental missile test,

:03:04.:03:10.

As with previous launches, the event was celebrated

:03:11.:03:13.

From Seoul, here's our correspondent Karen Allen.

:03:14.:03:21.

Cloaked in darkness, state run TV captured the final

:03:22.:03:26.

A potent symbol of North Korea's defiance in the face

:03:27.:03:32.

Its leader Kim Jong-un there to witness it all.

:03:33.:03:37.

And the moment that Pyongyang thumbed its nose at the world.

:03:38.:03:50.

The second launch of an intercontinental ballistic

:03:51.:03:52.

It travelled higher and further than the missile fired before,

:03:53.:03:57.

eventually smashing down into the ocean off

:03:58.:03:59.

Then came the official confirmation from Pyongyang.

:04:00.:04:06.

The newsreader announcing that this test was proof that the whole

:04:07.:04:08.

Pictures show a triumphant North Korean leader.

:04:09.:04:18.

In Washington, President Trump described the tests

:04:19.:04:20.

The reaction from North Korea's neighbour in the south

:04:21.:04:25.

TRANSLATION: Dashing the international community's hopes

:04:26.:04:36.

have eased inter-Korean military tensions and in particular, Seoul's

:04:37.:04:39.

These joint US-South Korea military drills a response to the launch,

:04:40.:04:51.

designed to send a clear message that Seoul and Washington stand

:04:52.:04:55.

shoulder-to-shoulder in the face of an increasingly belligerent North

:04:56.:04:57.

The US already has battleships in the Pacific Ocean.

:04:58.:05:05.

Now, it has promised to scale up its strategic assets in response

:05:06.:05:08.

More aircraft carriers and stealth bombers could soon be on the way.

:05:09.:05:14.

A jubilant Kim Jong-un wants US recognition as a nuclear power.

:05:15.:05:16.

Instead, in the wake of another missile test,

:05:17.:05:18.

he's likely to face stiffer sanctions with China

:05:19.:05:20.

and Russia under pressure not to stand in the way.

:05:21.:05:35.

President Trump's Chief-of-Staff, Reince Priebus, has resigned

:05:36.:05:38.

after days of public infighting at the White House and repeated

:05:39.:05:41.

failures by the administration to fulfil key election pledges.

:05:42.:05:43.

Mr Trump has replaced him with John Kelly, a former general,

:05:44.:05:45.

who he praised for his work as head of Homeland Security.

:05:46.:05:51.

He has done an incredible job thus far, respected by everybody.

:05:52.:05:55.

It has emerged that UK universities have a pension fund with a deficit

:05:56.:06:09.

that has grown to more than ?17 billion -

:06:10.:06:12.

The universities superannuation scheme caters for existing

:06:13.:06:16.

Pensions experts warn universities may have to reduce benefits

:06:17.:06:21.

for members or increase tuition fees for students to fill the black hole.

:06:22.:06:28.

Universities only have a limited number of sources of income.

:06:29.:06:31.

The main source of income is obviously from student fees

:06:32.:06:33.

and it seems inconceivable to me that student fees will not have

:06:34.:06:36.

to be diverted into plugging the pension deficit.

:06:37.:06:40.

That means either that they go up or there is a smaller amount

:06:41.:06:43.

of money that can be dedicated towards teaching and research.

:06:44.:06:51.

Our Business Correspondent Joe Lynam is here.

:06:52.:06:55.

Yes, this pension scheme is in a pickle and the number has doubled

:06:56.:07:07.

over the last year. It is as you say the biggest financial pensions black

:07:08.:07:09.

hole in the country at the moment and the Government can't bail it

:07:10.:07:13.

out. This is not something that the taxpayers can step in and help. What

:07:14.:07:20.

are the options? You could go back to the lecturers and academics and

:07:21.:07:23.

say you need to pay in more and get less out. They took a hit last year

:07:24.:07:29.

and may say that's not a runner. We may want to change countries. The

:07:30.:07:34.

next option is to go to donors, wealthy individuals who like to have

:07:35.:07:38.

their names on libraries and buildings in the university. They

:07:39.:07:41.

may not like the idea of paying into a pension scheme. You are looking at

:07:42.:07:46.

increasing the costs for students and that's toxic. Just ask the

:07:47.:07:48.

Liberal Democrats after the 2015 election. From September, they will

:07:49.:07:54.

be paying ?9250 maximum for tuition fees. That's going to be very

:07:55.:08:01.

tricky. A as for the scheme, they say it is too soon to talk about

:08:02.:08:06.

hiking twu wirks costs, they say the universities superannuation scheme

are secure and backed by a solid investment portfolio. Joe, thank

is returning to Formula One racing, for the first time since

:08:52.:08:59.

November 2013. Felipe Massa has had to pull

:09:00.:09:01.

out of the Hungarian Grand Prix after suffering

from dizzy spells since Friday. It means the Williams team reserve

Michael Schumacher's record of 68 England's footballers have trained

:09:19.:09:20.

this morning ahead of their Women's European Championship quarterfinal

:09:21.:09:26.

against France in the Netherlands. Our sports correspondent

:09:27.:09:28.

Katie Gornall has been in the England camp this week

:09:29.:09:30.

and joins us live. Katie, there's a real sense back

:09:31.:09:34.

here that this is a very Well, that's right. We get a sense

:09:35.:09:46.

of that here as well and England will need to be confident because

:09:47.:09:50.

history is very much against them when it comes to France. They

:09:51.:09:56.

haven't beaten France. There is a feeling that France could be there

:09:57.:09:59.

for the taking. They struggled in the group. They only just made it

:10:00.:10:03.

through. They were very close to elimination and they're going to be

:10:04.:10:08.

missing their captain, their influential captain who is regarded

:10:09.:10:11.

as one of the best defenders in the world. England, on the other hand,

:10:12.:10:16.

cruised through their group. They won three out of three and one of

:10:17.:10:21.

only two teams with 100% record and scored ten goals. So they have got a

:10:22.:10:26.

real spring in their step, but I think we can expect a spiky

:10:27.:10:30.

quarterfinal. There has been ebb and flow of mind games between the two

:10:31.:10:36.

camps with Mark Sampson saying that the French coach is wet behind the

:10:37.:10:39.

ears when it comes to tournament football. He said his team is a team

:10:40.:10:46.

of street fighters and they bite back when they are poked. I was at

:10:47.:10:50.

training this morning in their base and they had a tactics board by the

:10:51.:10:54.

side of the pitch that just said, "Win" On it. That's all they're

:10:55.:11:00.

concentrating on. If they do that, they will make history and if they

:11:01.:11:06.

do that, they will face Sweden or the Netherlands in the semifinals in

:11:07.:11:08.

the last four. That game between Sweden and the Netherlands is being

:11:09.:11:12.

played this evening, Mike. Thanks, Katie.

:11:13.:11:18.

Kick off is 7.45pm, France against England.

:11:19.:11:19.

That's all the sport for now - back to you Chris.

Good afternoon. Well, the weather is going rapidly downhill in many parts

:11:31.:11:54.

of the country after what was for some of us a very sunny start to the

:11:55.:12:00.

day. It is a beautiful picture from Suffolk, but here too the rain is

going to reach you. Let me show you the headline for today. Southern
