A teenager has been describing the moment she thought an armed gang | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
of men were going to kill her after they broke into her home. | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
17-year-old Chloe Hawthorne from Markethill in County | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
Armagh said one of them threatened to shoot her. | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
She has been talking to our south-east reporter Gordon Adair. | :00:21. | :00:33. | |
I kept backing of and one of the boys smashed its breakthrough. | :00:34. | :00:41. | |
Chloe has been describing the moment she was confronted by a masked gang, | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
The glass was smashing. They were only interested in the car, where | :00:45. | :00:59. | |
with the keys to the car? The ketchup can give me the keys or I | :01:00. | :01:07. | |
will shoot. All I could hear in my head is just them shouting that. The | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
police believe this chain of events may have begun here. A house was | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
broken into and ransacked. Among the items taken was an illegally held | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
gun. It is not immediately clear what time this happened at but the | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
police are investigating a possible link between this break-in and the | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
crash just two miles away. This car was being driven by a local woman. | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
The Vauxhall had been stolen in Dublin, where a number of people | :01:38. | :01:45. | |
fled the scene. The Hawthorne home is just a few hundred yards away. | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
Chloe was there alone. I heard these noises and voices and they knew | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
someone was at the house. I grabbed my phone out of my room and I went | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
to the kitchen to see who was there. Originally I thought it was my uncle | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
grandad checking the sheep but I saw this gang coming over the back of | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
the hill and down the bank with a gun in their hands and putting it | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
straight at me and shouting at me to open the door. | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
Chloe accepts that putting this event behind her | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
You always imagine it is a nightmare. | :02:23. | :02:31. | |
I milk at a local farm. Even being there at work I am going to be | :02:32. | :02:39. | |
nervous. Anywhere on my own I will be scared encase that happens. | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
Hopefully it won't again but it will always be at the back of my mind. | :02:43. | :02:52. | |
Chloe's car was later recovered in Dublin and two arrests had been | :02:53. | :02:53. | |
made. And the Gardai say a juvenile has | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
been charged in relation to the incident, while another | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
teenager has been released The police are investigating | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
a security alert in Newtownabbey. A suspicious object has been found | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
at Devenish Drive in Homes have been evacuated | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
and roads closed. The Secretary of State has pulled | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
out of an event run by the DUP after it was revealed to be | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
a fundraiser for the party. The SDLP leader says | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
James Brokenshire needs to show he's not favouring the party over | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
any other in Northern Ireland. Here's our political correspondent | :03:24. | :03:25. | |
Gareth Gordon. This is the Lisbon cafe where the | :03:26. | :03:39. | |
secretary of state will not now be attending a DUP fundraiser later | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
this month. -- Lisburn. Billed as a business breakfast he was billed as | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
a guest speaker alongside the party leader and First Minister Arlene | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
Foster. All for ?30 a plate or a cable for ten at ?300. The | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
invitation called it an excellent opportunity to work with businesses | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
and elective representatives. But James Ragan -- James Brokenshire | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
withdrew from the event. This will have caused some embarrassment for | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
the Secretary of State and DUP and neither working to talk about it to | :04:12. | :04:22. | |
date. And NIO spokesman said only... The DUP refused to comment. Last | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
week the party held a champagne reception at the Conservative | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
Conference amid claims that the two parties have done a deal in the wake | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
of the Brexit vote. Critics were quick to jump on the breakfast story | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
of more evidence of growing ties. It is quite clear given the Tory party | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
Conference and champagne receptions and James Robbins are agreeing to | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
attend a fundraiser for that party that they seem to be working very | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
closely together. That is buying on one level but the British Secretary | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
of State and British Government should not be in the pockets of any | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
one party. The Secretary of State detainee the DUP MPs in what was | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
described as a distraught -- constructive and useful engage in. | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
The NIU said it was a constructive series of meetings with all the | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
parties represented at Westminster. A Belfast City Council committee has | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
voted to scrap free car parking in the city centre in the run | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
up to Christmas. It follows an intervention | :05:15. | :05:16. | |
by Translink, who said Instead, Translink has | :05:17. | :05:18. | |
offered to reduce fares Christmas shoppers in Belfast last | :05:19. | :05:34. | |
year and enjoyed an early Christmas present from the council. 1500 free | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
car parking spaces at night tanks and weekends. Part of efforts to | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
encourage people to spend their money. In the city centre. But some | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
said they initiative was counter-productive and lead to | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
increased congestion as they waited for the free spaces. This year | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
Translink and the Department of infrastructure of offering | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
alternative ideas including reduced fares and buses and trains. And | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
extended opening times of park-and-ride facilities. Translink | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
as the Belfast City Council to review the initiative and to make a | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
council committee voted in favour of ending the free parking. People came | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
in and found that they couldn't get a free parking space and even those | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
parking spaces were often taken up all day baby Bean became an early. | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
Turnover in the parking spaces was less than it previously had been. It | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
led to a congestion, confusion, stress. Not everyone was in | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
agreement. I think it doesn't encourage people to come in | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
particularly from far-away areas and people carrying bulky items, and a | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
car is much more convenient than a bus. Tonight next decision is a | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
recommendation. It will now have to go before the full council at a | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
meeting next month. Scientists have confirmed that | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
Mid Ulster is a hot spot for a gene that causes people to grow much | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
taller and larger than is usual. Stories of giants such | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
as Finn McCool are a feature of Irish myths and legends, | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
but geneticists in Belfast believe there is a genetic link | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
to those stories. People who carry the gene can suffer | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
from serious health problems, The story of the Irish giant gene | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
begins with the DNA of somebody Since then it has been passed down | :07:15. | :07:29. | |
through generations. Today it has been found | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
in more than 400 people, Spikes -- he was diagnosed with | :07:34. | :07:35. | |
gigantism. He is related to the 18th-century | :07:36. | :07:50. | |
giant Charles Burn. It can cause a brain tremor that | :07:51. | :07:52. | |
makes glands produce too The condition, if left untreated, | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
when we look at examples of the past, most of these | :07:58. | :08:07. | |
guys died in 20s, 30s. Just as a result of having | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
the condition. If it is left untreated. Happen. | :08:12. | :08:24. | |
Three years ago scientists screened almost 1000 people at Cookstown and | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
Dungannon. They discovered the area was a giant hotspot. One in 50 | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
living here carry the gene compared to higher in the rest of the UK. | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
Many people carry the gene and never have a problem. For those who do it | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
can present with tall stature and people going excessively toll at a | :08:47. | :08:48. | |
young age. It can also cause problems with growth in the hands | :08:49. | :08:55. | |
and feet. It is associated to problems related to headaches | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
because of the growing tumour in the brain. The scientists hope that the | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
work will help to identify those at risk of passing the gene onto | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
children. The benefit of doing this is not just to reassure people have | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
the gene who are normal. It is to stop their children suddenly going | :09:13. | :09:15. | |
through a massive growth spurt, because if they see an increase in | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
the fight someone over a short period of one or two years, you can | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
put in treatments with drugs, tablets to stop it happening. As a | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
result of the research, the gene may be consigned to history, along with | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
the legends of Irish giants. It may not please the romantic in some | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
people, but those who are afflicted with this condition probably won't | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
object to the end of this condition. By raising awareness of the giant | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
gene, it is hoped that fewer people will suffer the consequences. | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
A County Antrim anaesthetist has pleaded guilty to 27 | :09:55. | :09:56. | |
charges of making indecent photographs of children. | :09:57. | :09:58. | |
Piotr Dziurdzik of Meetinghouse Street in Ballymoney, | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
worked at the Causeway Hospital in Coleraine. | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
The Northern Health Trust says an interim suspension order has been | :10:05. | :10:06. | |
placed on the doctor's registration by the General Medical Council. | :10:07. | :10:13. | |
Teaching unions here have rejected a pay offer | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
The employers offered no cost of living rise for last year | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
The unions say teachers' pay in Northern Ireland is falling | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
behind their counterparts in England and Wales. | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
The largest union NASUWT says it will now consider strike action, | :10:31. | :10:32. | |
and from next week its members will refuse to attend meetings | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
This dispute has been going on for so long because of the failure of | :10:36. | :10:48. | |
the Department for Education to properly address the pay of teachers | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
in Northern Ireland. Since 2010 teachers pay in real terms as Poland | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
by at least 15%. This morning they really insulted the teaching | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
profession in Northern Ireland. They are saying this is a joke and it is | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
time for teachers to get together and stand up and put up a marker | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
with the Department for Education and minister of that teachers need | :11:11. | :11:11. | |
to be paid a decent wage. Looking ahead to tomorrow | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
night's BBC Newsline, we have the second of our reports | :11:15. | :11:16. | |

I more or less had no hope. That's on BBC Newsline | :11:42. | :11:42. | |
