Here on BBC One it's time for the news where you are.

A man has been shot in a targeted attack, as he dropped off his child

at a Glasgow primary school just as other children

It happened in the Penilee area of the city and it is understood

Police say whoever carried out the attack had put young children

and innocent people at risk. Suzanne Allan reports.

Police have spent today examining the scene of this crime

and reassuring the public that they are safe.

It was near bell time and as parents were dropping off their

children a man pushing a buggy approached another parent.

One woman told me that she heard a loud noise.

I thought it was an air rifle going off and the kids

asked what had happened and I just said nothing.

No, but I saw the children jumping and then they kept walking.

These grandparents who live around the corner have a child

We cannot get into our own house just around the corner.

Worried that we do not know what else is happening.

It is shocking for it to be at his school.

And especially a primary school, with the kids there,

Police believe that this was a targeted attack.

The BBC understands that the victim is 35-year-old Ross Monaghan,

who was cleared four years ago of the gangland murder of Kevin

Carroll, who was shot dead in a car park in 2010.

The force says it is putting on extra patrols

incident, there are concerns that children may be upset with what

Fortunately, most of the children, almost all of them, were

latecomers and it is unacceptable that these people have chosen

to target this incident outside and potentially endanger

behind me, investigators concluded that they believed the fire had

Cathy, both needed treatment for the effects

Today, 26-year-old Blair Logan, the older brother of Cameron Logan,

appeared in court in Dunbartonshire to face a range

of charges, including murder and attempted murder.

He made no plea and he was remanded in custody.

The date of his next appearance in court has yet to be set.

The inquest has begun into the deaths of 30 tourists

who were killed in a terror attack in Tunisia in 2015.

Four Scots were among those who died when a lone gunman opened

The proceedings, which are taking place in London, are being shown

It was a special holiday for Billy and Lisa Graham from near Perth.

They had gone to a resort in Tunisia to celebrate the 50th birthday of

Mrs Graham, but became victims of a terrorist attack aimed directly

Relatives of those who died gathered at the Royal Court of Justice in

London today, as the inquest into the deaths of the

There was a minute's silence and all the names were read out.

For the Scottish relatives and survivors,

there was also a chance to be involved.

A room has been set aside at Stirling Sheriff Court,

where the relatives of those who died can

watch the proceedings in London through a special TV link.

The inquests are expected to last around seven weeks and this facility

will be available to them for the whole time.

The evidence today heard claims that Tunisian law enforcement

units delayed their arrival on the scene because they were too

frightened to tackle the gunman before police arrived.

Relatives of the victims have waited a year and a half for the inquest

to get underway and the hope now is that they will finally

Additional checks are being carried on a North Sea helicopter fleet

grounded last week over safety fears.

It follows an incident on a North Sea platform last month,

which saw an S92 spin more than 180 degrees on landing.

Operators are now being told to increase inspections

Scotland's biggest council has confirmed it is planning to put up

It will be the first time bills have gone up in Glasgow for 12 years.

It is able to put the bills up because the government is ending

Earlier, I asked our local government correspondent

Jamie McIvor how many other councils had intimated that

3% in council tax, it is about ?3 a month for a typical property.

Glasgow Council said it was likely to make the rise, joining others

including Borders and West Dunbartonshire.

But most have given no public indication yet of their plans

and South Lanarkshire is going to freeze their bills again.

I would be surprised if it was the only council

to do that, although it is worth pointing out that if you're in a

home classed as Band E or above, then your bill will rise no

matter where you live, because of changes to the system

Why have so many failed to declare at this stage?

I think, to be frank, in some cases, political calculations

are being made ahead of the council elections in May.

The councils are deciding whether a further freeze or rise of

under 3% could prove popular with some voters or

On the other hand, some Labour councillors I've spoken to

feel they are caught between a rock and a hard place.

They argue a 3% rise in the council tax will not

be enough to avoid cuts, so they're cautious basically about something

that could look to the public like they're being asked to pay more

On other hand, the council tax is really the only tool

at their disposal when it comes to income and they could find

it hard not to use that to try to mitigate

what they say are cuts in savings that they do not want to make.

We should know the plans of every council by mid-February.

The former chairman of UKIP in Scotland has admitted in court

to making sexual phone calls to ten women.

Arthur Misty Thackeray, who was chief of staff

for the party's MEP David Coburn, pleaded guilty at Glasgow Sheriff

Court to the offences over a five-year period.

The salmon fishing season has opened in the Tay with the announcement

of plans aimed at significantly boosting fish stocks.

It is claimed that restoring water to a 17-mile section

of the river system will do more for salmon fishing in the area

than any other single project. Steven Godden reports.

It begins with pipes and drums in the village square.

first cast, marking the start of salmon season.

We never knew them before and we met them here on the banks of the river.

It is a good day out and, hopefully, this year, a nice

catch of fish was up with a shared goal they come from all

It is always on the radar of fishing, whether it is

salmon fishing or any other kind, millions of pounds coming

That all depends on a thriving salmon population.

As a new season arrives, developments elsewhere

in the catchment of those managing the river cause

This is the River Garry, an important tributary of the Tay.

Today, the snowmelt is flowing, but over the past 50 years or so,

the hydroelectric scheme has left this part of the river

Work is underway to change that, by opening up a new stretch

We estimate it could produce about 1,500 extra spring salmon into

the Tay catchment, a significant addition to the river.

And there is no other project in Scotland that

anyone could do, and individual project, that could actually be

Prompted by an EU directive, there is a trade-off.

Clearly, we will lose some generation - around

0.5% of our annual hydro generation capacity.

So, it is not insignificant, as I say, but we say

that the River Garry is a special case where it makes sense to

Last autumn was poor, but spring catches have

improved in recent years, with conservation

More fish in the river means more chance of catching one.

For these guys, something worth drinking to.

Over to Kirsteen now, with the weather outlook

An area of high pressure to the south west of the UK

will drift its way over towards the North Sea

leaving us with a mild south-westerly airflow.

Some clear spells this evening, initially in the east.

However, clouding over as the night progresses,

with some and patchy outbreaks of rain continuing to feed

Misty and murky conditions for many of us,

with extensive hill fog around the west and south, especially.

as we go through the day, leaving largely dry conditions.

Lots of cloud, but look at these temperatures.

Double figures for all of us, with highs of around 12 Celsius.

The best of any greatness in eastern areas. Across the rest of the United

Kingdom, cloud affecting the north of England. The best of the

brightness in the far South east. In Scotland, eyes of 12 Celsius, more

than double for the average this time of year. Tomorrow, largely dry.

Wind strengthening from the South west. Perhaps touching gale force at

times. Into Whitley, little in the week of change. The best of any

sunshine in the east. Temperatures and 10- Northern Celsius. I thirsty,

on repeat once again. A very similar picture.

Parents are facing an explosion in the number of children saying

It was like a battle, like in a war zone. She would literally scream.
