Good evening. Three people remain in That's all from

:00:00.:00:18.

Good evening. Three people remain in police custody denied at the murder

:00:19.:00:22.

of a 46`year`old man in St Helier. Colin Chevalier was found at his

:00:23.:00:25.

place in Duhamel Place on Saturday night. It is believed he and the

:00:26.:00:28.

three suspects knew each other. Through the drizzle and the rain the

:00:29.:00:33.

investigation continues into why and how a man was murdered here late on

:00:34.:00:38.

Saturday night. Police say 46`year`old Colin

:00:39.:00:42.

Chevalier lived in a property in Duhamel Place, where he died. A

:00:43.:00:46.

picture is beginning to emerge but we still have a lot of people that

:00:47.:00:50.

we want to speak to come including the suspects, of course, in order to

:00:51.:00:54.

establish what took place on Saturday night.

:00:55.:01:00.

Police got the call here around 10:20pm on Saturday night where they

:01:01.:01:03.

found the dead man. Shortly afterwards, a man and a woman were

:01:04.:01:11.

arrested on suspicion of murder. Another 35`year`old man was arrested

:01:12.:01:18.

here on Jersey's East coursed `` coursed by armed police. He remains

:01:19.:01:21.

in hospital under armed guard tonight but police say they are some

:01:22.:01:25.

way off from charging anyone. I think the peak `` public sometimes

:01:26.:01:30.

assume, there have been arrests, the police have their man and women,

:01:31.:01:35.

done job. That is not the case, there is an

:01:36.:01:38.

awful lot of work that will have to be done this week, forensics

:01:39.:01:43.

investigations, witnesses to be spoken to and the suspects to be

:01:44.:01:47.

interviewed. We have already engaged with legal advisers and the law

:01:48.:01:52.

office's Department and consideration of charges will be

:01:53.:01:55.

determined in new course later this week. 48 hours after police got for

:01:56.:02:00.

`` first got the call that Colin Chevalier had been murdered in the

:02:01.:02:03.

apartment behind me, forensics teams have been here trying to find that

:02:04.:02:09.

what happened. A Home Office pathologist has also

:02:10.:02:11.

been in Jersey carrying out a postmortem. Earlier today police

:02:12.:02:17.

wanted to know the whereabouts of a dark coloured Volkswagen Polo parked

:02:18.:02:21.

on the street on Saturday and moved hours before his death. They found

:02:22.:02:26.

the car this afternoon. The last murder in Jersey was in 2011. The

:02:27.:02:32.

investigation is set to continue here for the rest of the evening and

:02:33.:02:37.

on into the week. The death of a 17`year`old has been

:02:38.:02:42.

linked by police to a class a drug. Jared Harrison was found dead at a

:02:43.:02:47.

house in Saint earlier on Saturday morning. Friends of the boy said he

:02:48.:02:52.

was caring and popular. A caring teenager with a big

:02:53.:02:56.

personality. Jared's friends described him as popular and a

:02:57.:03:02.

joker. Today his younger brother said his death has left a gaping

:03:03.:03:06.

hole. He is my special big brother, just

:03:07.:03:13.

my bodyguard, always there for me. He had a bigger heart than him to be

:03:14.:03:18.

honest. The houses to quiet at the moment. Youth workers have been out

:03:19.:03:21.

on Jersey's streets since Saturday lunchtime offering support to upset

:03:22.:03:23.

youngsters. They are great group of young people

:03:24.:03:26.

that have been supporting each other and listening to each other, lots of

:03:27.:03:30.

hugs for each other and they have been there for each other, which is

:03:31.:03:33.

nice to see. The police say the 17`year`old may

:03:34.:03:36.

have taken a white powder he believed was MDMA, commonly known as

:03:37.:03:39.

ecstacy. Three other young men were taken to hospital and have since

:03:40.:03:42.

been discharged. Jersey's Chief Medical Officer of Health says it's

:03:43.:03:47.

a wake up call. I think it is only sadly with the

:03:48.:03:50.

growing statistics that people are starting to really wake up to the

:03:51.:03:56.

fight it is not just a new way of young people having fun and taking

:03:57.:04:00.

risks, it is frankly dangerous and better to be avoided. Today Jersey

:04:01.:04:03.

Police released on bail two teenagers who had been arrested on

:04:04.:04:06.

suspicion of importing a controlled substance.

:04:07.:04:07.

They are asking anyone with information to come forward.

:04:08.:04:10.

Meanwhile, Jared's friends say they'll remember him as a big care

:04:11.:04:13.

bear who's heart was bigger than him.

:04:14.:04:16.

It has the biggest budget the biggest spending department in

:04:17.:04:26.

Guernsey's government is being told to title its bets as Michael Tait

:04:27.:04:30.

and its belt. Health and social services needs to find more than ?3

:04:31.:04:34.

million worth of savings whilst also generating income of almost 10

:04:35.:04:36.

million. Mike Wilkins reports on another

:04:37.:04:39.

challenge facing the island's health authorities. Guernsey's HSSD is

:04:40.:04:42.

facing its own emergency as it rushes to make savings before the

:04:43.:04:46.

end of the year. The department needs to save almost

:04:47.:04:50.

?5 million, but has so far only managed 2 million. And now health

:04:51.:04:54.

bosses in the building behind me have come up with a plan to make up

:04:55.:04:57.

the remainder. An operation plan has been released

:04:58.:05:02.

today. It's more of an overview ` there's no confirmation of which

:05:03.:05:05.

services will come under pressure. We're not going into details of what

:05:06.:05:10.

individual plans are. We have identified the high`level projects,

:05:11.:05:15.

for example, we are doing a drug and alcohol strategy. We don't go into

:05:16.:05:19.

detail of what is in that drug and alcohol strategy. This is

:05:20.:05:22.

identifying what project we will be doing and, obviously, the more

:05:23.:05:28.

detailed bits as and when necessary will come back and be published.

:05:29.:05:32.

But reigning in spending on low priority drugs and reviewing

:05:33.:05:34.

contracts with service providers are some of the ways it says it can

:05:35.:05:38.

reduce its expenditure. But what do people on the street think should be

:05:39.:05:41.

done? It is very difficult to know which

:05:42.:05:45.

services, because they all seem so important. It depends on their

:05:46.:05:51.

definition, low priority to one person is high priority to someone

:05:52.:05:52.

else. It is a hard one.

:05:53.:05:57.

It will help some people, but not others.

:05:58.:05:59.

What to cut and who will be affected remains to be seen as the Health

:06:00.:06:03.

Department does what it can to balance the books whilst keeping as

:06:04.:06:04.

many services as it can alive. That is the latest news from BBC

:06:05.:06:13.

Channel Islands. Newsnight is starting now on BBC Two

:06:14.:06:17.

hearing the voices and memories of those who witnessed the Rwandan

:06:18.:06:23.

genocide 20 years ago. BBC Radio Jersey and Guernsey will

:06:24.:06:27.

be on air tomorrow from 6am. I will leave you with the weather.

:06:28.:06:31.

Good evening, we have some fine weather to look forward to this

:06:32.:06:36.

week. There may be some showers around this evening and one or two

:06:37.:06:39.

first thing tomorrow morning but they will clear it of the way then

:06:40.:06:42.

we will have some sunshine. At the moment the risk of showers is quite

:06:43.:06:46.

high, we will see a few more overnight tonight, but once those

:06:47.:06:50.

are right of the way there will be lengthy clear spells tonight, so it

:06:51.:06:55.

will be colder than recently, but much better visibility. Seven

:06:56.:06:58.

Celsius the minimum temperature and tomorrow a few morning showers, but

:06:59.:07:01.

by the afternoon they will have gone, rest of the day is fine and

:07:02.:07:06.

dry. There is a chilly breeze, you will have to wrap up warmly, 12 or

:07:07.:07:11.

13 Celsius the maximum, despite quite a bit of sunshine through the

:07:12.:07:14.

afternoon and into the early evening. As we look through this

:07:15.:07:18.

week, the outlook is dry, light winds on Wednesday and Thursday,

:07:19.:07:22.

Thursday rather more cloudy and Friday at risk of showers but not

:07:23.:07:29.

many. In the second the UK forecast, from as it is good night and the

:07:30.:07:30.

summary. getting up to around 14 degrees.

:07:31.:07:35.

Unsettled conditions through the next few days. A bit of rain around

:07:36.:07:38.

on Friday but with more on that, I will hand you over to Nina Ridge.

:07:39.:07:46.

The weekend brought some mild nights. Signs of a change across

:07:47.:07:50.

Northern Ireland and Scotland, but for England and Wales many places

:07:51.:07:55.

began the day at ten to 13 degrees. That contrast has been cleared away

:07:56.:07:59.

so by tomorrow morning a chillier start to the day and typical

:08:00.:08:03.

temperatures will be five to seven degrees. An active cold front, heavy

:08:04.:08:09.

rain and wind. We have some showers following on from behind. On the

:08:10.:08:15.

satellite picture, a main low-pressure clearing out into the

:08:16.:08:22.

North Sea. In between the showers through the night there will be

:08:23.:08:27.

clearer spells and that allows the temperatures to drop away. The

:08:28.:08:31.

westerly breeze will blow showers across the country through the

:08:32.:08:34.

night. Cold enough for snow across the tops of the Scottish mountains.
