Good evening. on the BBC News Channel. We

A six-year-old girl has been killed in a crash in County Down.

She was in a car which was involved in a collision with another car

Our Reporter Kevin Sharkey has been to the scene.

A country road and family and farming life collided in tragedy.

The crush up and just before 10am this morning. Three people injured

and taken to hospital, including his six-year-old schoolgirl who later

died from her injuries. A local family devastated and the community

shocks. It is commonly devastating. It is devastating for any family, so

distressing and heartbreaking. Our community will rally round to help

this family. It is unbearable. It is totally heartbreaking at this time.

One of the people treated in hospital is believed to be a

relative of the girl who died. The road where the tragedy happened is

the main road from Hilltown. The road is closed here and the crush up

and about less than a mile behind me. The cause of the crush is now

under investigation, the local bubbly representatives here have

been telling me today there have been six other serious crashes on

this stretch of road over the last year. This road a of bends and a lot

of dips. The road remained closed throughout the day and drivers are

diverted along other nearby routes. Lorries had to be diverted. Further

up this road of the police remained at the scene of the crush trying to

find out why the tragedy happened. -- the crash.

Two men arrested in connection with the murder of Conor McKee

in north Belfast have been released by the police.

The 37-year-old and 44-year-old were arrested yesterday.

Now, the National Lottery's biggest estimated jackpot of ?57.8 million

The top prize has rolled over 14 times and if nobody gets all six

numbers, it will be divided among those who match five

Rick Faragher has been talking to some hopeful winners.

Dreaming big. These lottery players in east Belfast are in search of a

winning ticket. New rules mean that night, somebody has to win the

record jackpots. It has rolled over 14 times. How would you spend money?

I would be able to spend it somehow my children and myself. I wouldn't

keep it all, I would make sure my family was looked after. I put some

away for my son and blow the rest, probably. Some holidays, nice

things, a nice car and whatever. Just generally being generous with

the people around me. The previous track ball was 42 million, that was

20 years ago. Now, it is 60 million. If you win, you will be as wealthy

as one of the Bee Gees. Let's give it a go. Lucky dip, please. Fingers

crossed! Not only do is sell lottery tickets, we get extra sales.

Customers come him who haven't been with us in a while and think they

will play it tonight because they haven't in a while. So it is good

for everybody. Sadly, you have more chance of being struck by lightning

or giving birth to quadruple its about winning tonight's big prize.

It is still worth a try though. And you still have plenty of time

to buy a ticket as the draw isn't until 9.55pm here

on BBC One tonight. Good evening. It looks as though we

will get our first northerly blast of the winter into the start of next

week. Quite a winter chill through Monday into Tuesday. Not too much

wind around today, but it was a chilling day, especially about

showery rain moved northwards. It was clear, but we could see a bit of

rain pushing towards County Antrim tonight before pulling away. Other

than that, it is a dry night for many of us with clear spells. Cold

in towns, 1-2 cells is in the countryside, a degree or two below.

Quite a widespread frost and ice sheet icy patches. Into tomorrow,

bright today. A few showers around, but most of those will be towards

the north and west. For many of us, once the mist and fog lifts, dry and

bright. Across Ireland, mixture of bright spells and across England and

Wales. Many showers in western areas could cause problems over northern

England as they run through. Some quite heavy and wintry on the hills.

Mostly towards the south and south-west, it will be milder,

relatively milder, around 9-10dC. Call the further north, and it is

breezy. Gail or severe gales the Northern Northwest:: more frequent

showers turning to snow over the mountains. For Northern Ireland in

the afternoon, we will get a breeze and I will tend to bring their

showers in the north and west further inland although they will be

more frequent towards the north-west. Sunny gaps in between,

but feeling called in the breeze, with highs of round 4-5dC. Into next

week, that is when we start to see those northerly or north-westerly

winds filtering down. It will be bitterly cold in those winds and

those winds will be bringing showers as well. Wintry ones and a mixture

of rain, sleet and snow. Not just on hills, but on low levels. Details

are difficult to pin down at this point, but they will be more

frequent among parts of the north and west.

From everyone on the BBC Newsline team, goodbye.
