:04:00. > :04:01.firearm and ammunition with intent to endanger life. He will appear

:04:02. > :04:05.before magistrates tomorrow. An Enniskillen man was among those

:04:06. > :04:08.who witnessed the truck attack in the Swedish capital

:04:09. > :04:09.of Stockholm this afternoon. Jonathan Lappin was in

:04:10. > :04:11.a nearby coffee shop. We had just sat down and had

:04:12. > :04:14.about two sips of our coffee and people outside the coffee shop

:04:15. > :04:22.directly in the main central station

:04:23. > :04:23.and across the road from the department store started

:04:24. > :04:26.to run the other way. That's when I saw

:04:27. > :04:30.the police arrive and they were yelling very

:04:31. > :04:32.loudly for people to evacuate and we decided

:04:33. > :04:36.to run up the escalators We sat there for a couple of minutes

:04:37. > :04:45.and then I said to my As soon as we got out

:04:46. > :04:50.there, it was calm. There wasn't many people,

:04:51. > :04:51.just the police. There was a mass panic

:04:52. > :04:59.among the people in the shop and we started

:05:00. > :05:02.to run as fast as we go Sinn Fein and the DUP have

:05:03. > :05:11.criticised each other as the talks as the talks aimed at forming

:05:12. > :05:15.a power-sharing executive continue. The parties have been

:05:16. > :05:17.given until the 18th Sinn Fein walked away

:05:18. > :05:21.and left a vacuum. Therefore, there is a responsibility

:05:22. > :05:24.on them to come forward in relation to the formation of this government

:05:25. > :05:26.in a meaningful way The other parties recognise

:05:27. > :05:32.the mandate that was given to us in the last election

:05:33. > :05:36.and that was about a step change in the political process in terms

:05:37. > :05:40.of how the executive works, how it is business, how it

:05:41. > :05:44.treats society year. Apart from the DUP and

:05:45. > :05:46.the British government, Timed tickets are being introduced

:05:47. > :05:51.at Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge to deal with crowds at the famous

:05:52. > :05:55.north coast attraction. The new system will mean tourists

:05:56. > :05:58.are allocated a one-hour slot Last year, a record ?425,000

:05:59. > :06:07.people visited the site. Rory McIlroy is currently tied

:06:08. > :06:12.for 13th place as the second round of the Masters

:06:13. > :06:15.comes to a close. He's five shots behind

:06:16. > :06:27.clubhouse leaders Charley Hoffman This was another gutsy performance

:06:28. > :06:32.by Rory McIlroy who had hoped to finish on a slightly better school

:06:33. > :06:35.but it still keeps him in contention. The world number two

:06:36. > :06:43.battled through tough, windy conditions to return a score of one

:06:44. > :06:50.under par. He produced some magic on the way. I got a couple of bad

:06:51. > :06:55.breaks. I hit the pin and then the wind got me. Disappointed to finish

:06:56. > :06:59.like that but I'm still within five of the lead going into the weekend

:07:00. > :07:07.with better conditions on the way. I feel I am right in this tournament.

:07:08. > :07:11.I was in a position to get under par and didn't quite do that but try to

:07:12. > :07:18.get off to a fast start tomorrow and that will be forgotten. What will be

:07:19. > :07:25.required tomorrow to put you where you want to be? Mid 60s. It is all

:07:26. > :07:29.about being in position but I feel I need something in the 60s. I'm

:07:30. > :07:34.disappointed by what happened that the last but I'm in a decent

:07:35. > :07:36.position. So Rory McIlroy still very much in the hunt for a first Masters

:07:37. > :07:38.title. In rugby, Ulster's hopes of making

:07:39. > :07:41.the play-offs suffered a setback as they drew

:07:42. > :07:44.with the Blues in Belfast. Cardiff dominated the first half

:07:45. > :07:54.and Sam Warburton touched down but Ulster led 14-10 at the break

:07:55. > :07:57.with a Paddy Jackson Reynold Lee-Lo darted in for two

:07:58. > :08:01.tries to put Cardiff seven points in front before Luke Marshall

:08:02. > :08:03.went over for a converted In the Airtricity Premier League

:08:04. > :08:12.Cork City beat Derry City 3-0. Gary Buckley

:08:13. > :08:14.got the first 34 minutes in. Karl Sheppard scored the second

:08:15. > :08:21.and Sean Maguire netted the third. Now let's have a look at the weather

:08:22. > :08:33.prospects for the coming weekend. Good evening, the cloud has

:08:34. > :08:38.gradually started to break up and we start the weekend with some

:08:39. > :08:46.sunshine. By Sunday, it will be clouding over and for some of us

:08:47. > :08:49.rain likely in the day later on. Certainly, dry and the bit clearer

:08:50. > :08:57.tonight. So likely to be a bit chilly. Down to 3-5 in the

:08:58. > :09:02.countryside. Tomorrow, dry, plenty of sunshine. If you have some low

:09:03. > :09:09.cloud, that'll quickly burn off and melt away and the sun will win

:09:10. > :09:17.through. In the north and west, hanging onto cloud and showers.

:09:18. > :09:25.Elsewhere, lots of sunshine, pretty warm sunshine. Getting down towards

:09:26. > :09:26.21 in the south-east. A one day for Northern Ireland. The County Down

:09:27. > :09:33.coast may hold at 11-12 , inland, coast may hold at 11-12 , inland,

:09:34. > :09:42.highs of 15-16. Don't forget the sun cream. The sun is getting stronger

:09:43. > :09:46.all the while. As we head towards Sunday, cloud starts to gather. Rain

:09:47. > :09:52.moving in from the north-west later. Into the early evening. Weakening,

:09:53. > :09:55.so not too much rain on it. It turns cooler for the start of the new

:09:56. > :09:58.week. Rather cloudy and breezy. This week on
