The two lorry drivers have been arrested, one of them on suspicion | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
of driving while over the alcohol limit. | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
Crushed almost beyond recognition, the minibus carrying around a dozen | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
people, many believed to be from the same | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
family, was travelling from | :02:02. | :02:02. | |
Also involved in the accident, two large trucks. | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
Images suggest the minibus was crushed between the two huge | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
lorries and broken up into a least two pieces. | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
It happened in the early hours on the M1 motorway's | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
southbound carriageway between junction 15 for Northampton and | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
junction 14 for Milton Keynes, and caused huge delays for drivers | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
Fresh marks on the road reveal the desperate attempts | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
The six men and two women who were killed were | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
all travelling in the minibus, as were four others who were seriously | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
hurt, one of them a five-year-old girl. | :02:39. | :02:40. | |

31-year-old man from Worcestershire who is also being held on suspicion | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
Police say some of the victims may not have been from the UK. | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
Some of those involved were visiting the UK from India. | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
We're working to keep the families abroad informed. | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
The scene facing officers who attended was complex and the | :03:08. | :03:09. | |

It's our duty to establish what has happened. | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
The M1 motorway, one of Britain's busiest sections of road, | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
was closed here for ten hours on a bank holiday weekend | :03:24. | :03:25. | |
that was always going to see high levels of traffic, | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
with people visiting friends or family, | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
or major events like the Notting Hill Carnival | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
or the British Moto GP at nearby Silverstone racing circuit. | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
Both lorry drivers remain in custody. | :03:43. | :03:44. | |
It's not known if the driver of the minibus is among the dead. | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
Exactly what caused this devastating crash | :03:48. | :03:48. | |
This evening hospital staff will be doing their best to save the lives | :03:49. | :03:58. | |
of those three people, including the little girl with life-threatening | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
injuries. The two lorry drivers remain in custody and will be | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
expecting further questioning tomorrow for some other officers | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
will be trying to piece together Iseka Wahab and looking at | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
eyewitness accounts, dash cam evidence, I will phone records and | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
even the marks on the road to help them piece together exactly what | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
happened. Details of that evidence may have to wait for court | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
proceedings and that could take several months. -- exactly what | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
happened. Thank you. | :04:27. | :04:28. | |
Hurricane Harvey has left a trail of devastation after winds | :04:29. | :04:30. | |
of 130 miles per hour hit the Texas coastline. | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
The hurricane itself has now been downgraded to a tropical storm | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
but there are warnings the worst is yet to come as heavy rainfall | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
The State's governor says the military's | :04:39. | :04:40. | |
Our correspondent James Cook is in the city of Corpus Christi. | :04:41. | :04:51. | |
Thanks very much, Kate. We are getting a little more detail now | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
about the impact of Hurricane Harvey, and we are hearing in | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
particular, first of all, that one person has been confirmed to have | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
died, apparently in a fire related to the hurricane command that also | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
in some areas now the rainfall is so intense. Just in the last few | :05:09. | :05:10. | |
minutes we are hearing drivers in some parts of the state are having | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
to pull off the road because they can't see anything in front of them, | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
and that means the authorities are having to deal with two problems, | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
flooding but also the other immediate effects of this vicious | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
storm. Dan, are you in here? | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
This is what a Category four hurricane means in reality. | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
Searching in the wreckage to find out if your neighbour is dead or | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
alive. It seems that Dan did get out just in time. He wasn't the only one | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
who had a narrow escape, many Texans took to the roads only at the last | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
minute as the full power of the storm became clear. Others like Judy | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
simply had nowhere else to go. I just went to bed because I was like | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
I've got to ride this out. Did you sleep? No I sat there shaking in my | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
bed waiting for the roof to come off, and at about 10:30pm it all | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
quieted down and I walked out and there was a tree in my yard and | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
Becky's house is completely gone. The power of the wind is at the | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
harbour where Harvey made landfall five vessels had to be rescued by | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
helicopter, but these men who live in their boats battened down the | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
hatches and rode it out. They are lucky to be alive. Were you in the | :06:23. | :06:30. | |
boat during storm? Yeah, we was there. How was that? | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
LAUGHTER No lie, no brains! The power of the | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
hurricane is all too clear when you look at the damage it caused these | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
homes. This is a really poor neighbourhood and lots of people say | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
they simply don't know how they will now rebuild their lives. This is | :06:47. | :06:54. | |
what they endure during the night. 130 mph winds leaving nearly 250,000 | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
homes and businesses without power. It's still too early for a | :07:00. | :07:01. | |
comprehensive assessment of the damage but it will be costly. | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
The storm is inching inland dumping huge amounts of rain. | :07:04. | :07:11. | |
Our primary concern remains dramatic flooding. The state and various | :07:12. | :07:21. | |
agencies remain very active in the search and rescue process, and that | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
will be one of the foremost tasks that we undertake in the coming | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
days. The flooding has begun and the forecast is that it will get a lot | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
worse. This disaster is still unfolding. | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
James Cook, BBC News, Corpus Christi, in Texas. | :07:39. | :07:47. | |
King Felipe of Spain has joined hundreds of thousands of people | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
on a march through Barcelona in defiance of extremism. | :07:51. | :07:52. | |
Last week 15 people died when a van driven by a jihadist ploughed | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
It's the first time a Spanish King has taken | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
part in a demonstration since the monarchy | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
From Barcelona, Tom Burridge sent this report. | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
This was Barcelona's response, to terror on its streets. | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
Their message, written here, I am not afraid. | :08:06. | :08:14. | |
We are going to continue to be a city of peace and open to the rest | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
of the world. It doesn't really matter where they come from and what | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
their faith is a united we stand. Up the front those who rescued | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
unprotected people on that night. Standing tall in the | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
middle, Spain's King. A main avenue in the city centre, | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
was for hours, like Las Ramblas. Cars replaced by | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
a never-ending crowd. Of course, the atmosphere | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
here is not upbeat, This is about remembrance | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
and defiance. I found it very moving, so did my | :08:44. | :09:03. | |
daughter to be honest and we left a note just to say that piece from the | :09:04. | :09:17. | |
UK and we all stand together. -- peace. | :09:18. | :09:18. | |
A separate protest today in this small town where all of the known | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
Speaking in Catalan, one of their sisters gave | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
We must work together so that this never happens again. | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
At the Barcelona march, plenty of pro-independence Catalan flags. | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
The politics here is very divided, but today was about being united. | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
Tom Burridge, BBC news, in Barcelona. | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
Scotland Yard says a man who attacked police officers close | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
to Buckingham Palace last night drove directly at a police | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
car before reaching for a four-foot sword. | :09:49. | :09:56. | |
The 26-year-old man from Luton, is said to have shouted | :09:57. | :09:58. | |
"God is great" in arabic as he launched his assault, | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
Concerned tourists looked on after reports of a terror incident at one | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
of the country's most high-profile destinations. | :10:07. | :10:08. | |
London's Metropolitan Police say at around 8:30pm last | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
night, a blue Toyota Prius was deliberately driven at a marked | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
police car in a restricted area near Buckingham Palace. | :10:13. | :10:14. | |
The car stopped and when officers went to | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
investigate they were attacked by a suspect with a four-foot sword. | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
CS gas was used as part of obviously the arrest, | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
and during the struggle the individual repeatedly shouted | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
The individual was quickly brought under control. | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
He's a 26-year-old male from the Luton area, and I'm glad to | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
say he's now in custody at a central London police station. | :10:40. | :10:41. | |
Detectives believe this was an isolated | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
incident but confirmed there are searches | :10:45. | :10:46. | |
going on at an address in | :10:47. | :10:47. | |
We now know that three police officers were injured | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
were present in the palace at the time and an official has confirmed | :10:54. | :11:00. | |
it is business as usual with the summer open tours. | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
Two of the officers involved have been treated | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
in hospital and have since been discharged. | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
There is heightened security across the capital over the | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
bank holiday weekend, particularly for events | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
like the Notting Hill Carnival, where a ring of steel has | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
been promised to protect people from a Barcelona-style attack. | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
Meanwhile, police are still appealing for | :11:20. | :11:20. | |
information on last night's incident. | :11:21. | :11:21. | |
With all the sport - here's John Watson Foster | :11:22. | :11:32. | |
The holders England were beaten by New Zealand in the final of | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
They were beaten by 32-41 in a thrilling encounter in Belfast. | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
When it comes to the biggest games on the biggest stage, most England | :11:43. | :11:50. | |
and New Zealand fans have been here before and when the world's best go | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
head there is no margin for error. In Belfast England faced a fearsome | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
machine, three times they have played New Zealand in a World Cup | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
final and the Kiwis have always won. It took just seven minutes for the | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
black firms to click into gear, Munir to going from zero to the line | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
in no time. A penalty try in their favour was followed by their own | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
blend of expansive rugby as Lydia Thompson punched through the Kiwi | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
defence. But just as England sensed the momentum was theirs New Zealand | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
hit back. The outstretched arm a reminder that danger always looked. | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
A match that swung one way and the next from England tried to wrestle | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
control. Out of nothing Thompson managed this, New Zealand could only | :12:38. | :12:40. | |
sit back and watch. But soon something had to give, the black | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
firms were ruthless, relentless, and England struggled to stem the tide. | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
New Zealand had hit their stride and once on top there was no stopping | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
them. Two more tries and they wrestled the trophy from England's | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
grasp. Yet again in a World Cup final the red roses have finished | :12:58. | :13:06. | |
second best to New Zealand, a painfully familiar feeling. | :13:07. | :13:08. | |
So New Zealand have ended England's reign as champions in devastating | :13:09. | :13:10. | |
style. Although it might not be much consolation for these players right | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
now, they did contribute to a thrilling final here and have done | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
an awful lot to boost the game. Katie Gornall, BBC News, Belfast. | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
Hull FC have won Rugby League's Challenge Cup | :13:22. | :13:23. | |
