to get into the gig. Our north west reporter

of the 12,000 young people who attended, it certainly

was a night to remember, the Club MTV concert

at Ebrington Square. But concerns have been raised

:00:37.:00:40.

by medical staff and parents about the amount of drugs

:00:41.:00:44.

and alcohol taken by teenagers and particularly among those

and all the other patients. It is an exaggeration to say that

that young person could have died? If they had vomited,

to our political correspondent Enda McClafferty about the impact

the stalking has had on her: He was phoning me regularly,

text and me, saying, it couldn't let this religion ship going,

:06:01.:06:03.

and I had never met this man until one day

:06:04.:06:06.

He came up to me after the election and I

:06:07.:06:12.

He said he had been watching me a lot

:06:13.:06:18.

and he had got hold of my telephone number and then the calls and texts

:06:19.:06:25.

started arriving with increased regularity and I felt very

:06:26.:06:27.

I did not know this man from Adam and he lived in Dublin and

:06:28.:06:33.

was stalking me from his home address in Dublin.

:06:34.:06:35.

What impact did it have on the psychologically?

:06:36.:06:37.

Incredibly frightening, I had become a very public

:06:38.:06:41.

person after the death of my husband and Afghanistan.

:06:42.:06:44.

My story was out there that I was alone

:06:45.:06:48.

with two children and to feel honourable like that, it made me

:06:49.:06:51.

question whether this job was the right one for me.

:06:52.:06:58.

I nipped it in the bud very quickly and went to police.

:06:59.:07:02.

Maybe because I was an MLA, the police were very quick to act.

CCTV pictures have been released of the moment an articulated lorry

:07:33.:07:35.

crashed into Foyleside shopping centre in Derry at the weekend.

:07:36.:07:37.

The Police today renewed their appeal for three young men

:07:38.:07:40.

seen in the area at the time to come forward.

:07:41.:07:42.

It looked like nothing would stop the lorry.

:07:43.:07:47.

It just kept going and going, gathering speed before it

:07:48.:07:51.

eventually smashed into Foyleside shopping centre.

:07:52.:07:55.

No one was in the vehicle at the time and no one was hurt but if

:07:56.:08:02.

someone had been on the street, it could have been very story.

:08:03.:08:06.

The Poundland lorry barely slows down when it hits

:08:07.:08:15.

It then crashes through metal road by Lawrence one

:08:16.:08:28.

by one by one, leaving a trail of destruction.

:08:29.:08:30.

What the CCTV does not show is where the lorry's journey

:08:31.:08:34.

The vehicle careered out of control down this hill, bouncing of that

:08:35.:08:39.

this hill, bouncing off that

:08:40.:08:40.

The vehicle would have weighed within ten tonnes.

:08:41.:08:45.

Just look at how quickly it was going.

:08:46.:08:50.

The lorry had been parked outside a Poundland store

:08:51.:08:53.

The brakes either failed or are deliberately left off.

:08:54.:09:02.

It all happened at 4.45 in the morning.

:09:03.:09:04.

A couple of hours earlier and you would have

:09:05.:09:06.

been looking at bodies in

:09:07.:09:07.

In this part of the city centre, there would

:09:08.:09:14.

have been a lot of late night revellers but at this time of the

:09:15.:09:18.

morning, they're either those making their way home and those

:09:19.:09:20.

making their way to work and we are

:09:21.:09:22.

Someone could have come around the corner at the traffic lights and

:09:23.:09:26.

They want to speak to three young men spotted nearby around the same

:09:27.:09:32.

It took only around 12 seconds for the lorry to

:09:33.:09:37.

get down the hill but it took more than 12

:09:38.:09:39.

hours to remove it from the

:09:40.:09:43.

Facebook has failed to stop a 14-year-old girl taking legal

:09:44.:09:48.

action against it over a naked photograph.

:09:49.:09:51.

It's thought to be the first case of its kind.

:09:52.:09:54.

As Will Leitch reports a High Court judge in Belfast rejected attempts

:09:55.:09:58.

by the giant social media company to have the case thrown out.

:09:59.:10:03.

The photograph of the 14-year-old girl was posted time after time over

:10:04.:10:06.

In what is believed to be the first case of its

:10:07.:10:12.

kind anywhere in the world, the girl is suing the man suspected

:10:13.:10:15.

But barristers for Facebook applied to have the

:10:16.:10:22.

Facebook's legal team said a European directive

:10:23.:10:25.

protected the company from having to monitor a vast amount of online

:10:26.:10:28.

material for what is posted on just one page.

:10:29.:10:33.

They stressed that the

:10:34.:10:37.

social network always took down images that breached its rules and

:10:38.:10:40.

had taken down this picture when they were told it had been posted.

:10:41.:10:45.

Mr Justice Stevens refused their bid to end

:10:46.:10:49.

proceedings and instead the

:10:50.:10:50.

case will go to a full trial at a later date.

A County Down man struck by lightning three months ago

:10:57.:10:59.

36-year-old George Allen from Rampart Street in Dromore

:11:00.:11:06.

was due to appear before Lisburn court today, but a lawyer

:11:07.:11:08.

said he was still seriously injured in the incident

:11:09.:11:11.

He'd just collected his son and daughter from a sports day

:11:12.:11:16.

when all three were struck by the lightning.

:11:17.:11:18.

That morning George Allen had been given bail on a charge of inflicting

:11:19.:11:21.

The court case was today adjourned until next month.

:11:22.:11:29.

A 22-year-old man has been in court charged over a one

:11:30.:11:32.

Matthew McDermott, from Cornshell Fields in the city,

:11:33.:11:37.

is accused of grievous bodily harm with intent and

:11:38.:11:39.

Niall Grace, a player with Institute football club,

:11:40.:11:44.

is in a critical condition in hospital after the assault

:11:45.:11:46.

in Waterloo Street early yesterday morning.

:11:47.:11:51.

The weather forecast now, with Barra Best:

:11:52.:11:56.

Hello, this week is got off to quite a shaky start. Tight it will stay

:11:57.:12:03.

unsettled with further spells of rain across the eastern county

:12:04.:12:08.

especially. That could cause some problems for motorists with surface

:12:09.:12:11.

flooding in one or two spots because of the amount of rain that we get.

:12:12.:12:16.

It will be a mild night for us all 12 or 13 degrees. Tomorrow it stayed

:12:17.:12:19.

rather cloudy. There will be some rain with that cloud. Maybe using

:12:27.:12:28.

across western areas. Further east, it will stay cloudy. Through the day

:12:29.:12:34.

we will see another batch of rain pushed its way through the east

:12:35.:12:38.

coast of Ireland. Stretching across western areas into Scotland too.

:12:39.:12:41.

Maybe parts of Wales in south west England. -- Sabbath England. A warm

:12:42.:12:47.

picture. 31 degrees possible in parts of the south west part of

:12:48.:12:55.

England. 14 or 15 degrees for us by the middle of the afternoon. Saab

that rain pushing further west. It does look set to be further east.

Cool and fresh of the north coast. Wednesday, it will be a dry day.

:13:09.:13:14.

Also a warmer day. 19 or 20 degrees with the best chance of seeing

sunnier weather and the east coast. With sunshine and scattered showers
