A teenage girl has been taken to hospital after she was cut | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
in an incident on her school bus on the outskirts of Belfast. | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
It happened on a Lagan College bus - our reporter Ita Dungan sent this | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
The College allows integrated secondary school on the skirt of | :00:21. | :00:39. | |
East Belfast. It was on a school bus this afternoon that the incident | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
took place. The first we heard of it was when the parent telephoned into | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
the newsroom to save there had been a stabbing incident on a bus and the | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
police were there. Shortly afterwards the school said parents a | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
text message, confirming their had indeed been an incident on a bus and | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
the child had been taken to A, they went on to say the child was | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
not critically injured and senior management and the PSNI when dealing | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
with issue. I tried to speak to the principle here, she was unavailable | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
for comment. But the police have told us is that it was a young | :01:17. | :01:22. | |
schoolgirl who was injured, she sustained arm injuries and was the | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
taken task till, we are unsure whether she remained in hospital or | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
whether she has been discharged but the police have said they are | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
working hard to establish exactly what happened on that schoolbus. | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
It's been confirmed that a judge had issued a restraining order | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
against the man who murdered Connie Leonard in her | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
Connie was well known as a traditional Irish musician. | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
She was stabbed to death by Paddar Phair, who then took his own life. | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
He also stabbed and injured her son Conor who has Downs Syndrome. | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
Our south-west reporter, Julian Fowler reports from the scene | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
A floral tribute outside the home where Connie Leonard | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
Also outside the home, a police cordon observing | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
Connie Leonard had ended her relationship with Paddar Phair | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
and had put in place a non-molestation | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
A court hearing was due to take place yesterday | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
Instead Paddar Phair came to her home on Monday night | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
and attacked her and her son before taking his own life. | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
Those who work with victims of domestic violence say Connie had | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
She has gone, she has got a non-molestation order, | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
actively tried to keep herself safe but I think where the focus needs | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
to be is the responsibility for this lies very firmly with the man | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
who has committed this crime and not with Connie | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
and not with the agencies or the community around her. | :03:03. | :03:10. | |
Today the family released these photos of Connie, | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
a talented traditional musician who played the piano accordion. | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
She was involved with the Irish music organisation which put local | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
children and prepared them for the Fermanagh Fleadh. | :03:18. | :03:29. | |
The loss of a talented person like that, it's a big loss | :03:30. | :03:39. | |
because she was very much involved, and she has been involved | :03:40. | :03:41. | |
It is thought that her son Connor, who has Down's syndrome, | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
He was found by the police with stab wounds to his stomach. | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
Conor is now recovering from his stab injuries and is expected | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
to attend his mother's funeral on Friday. | :03:56. | :04:07. | |
Two men arrested by police in Omar 6Music have been released without | :04:08. | :04:15. | |

taken from prison to a police station in Belfast. | :04:20. | :04:28. | |
An inquest into the IRA killing of ten Protestant workmen in county | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
Armagh has been told that a key suspect has been linked | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
No one has ever been convicted over the Kingsmills massacre in 1976. | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
Kevin Sharkey reports from Belfast Coroners Court. | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
The victims were travelling to their homes after work. | :04:43. | :04:44. | |
A Catholic was allowed to leave, 11 Protestants were shot, | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
More than four decades after the killings, relatives | :04:48. | :04:55. | |
of the victims are coming to this inquest day after day. | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
Some elderly, hurting and looking for answers. | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
There were some answers today, when a suspect was described | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
This family is headed by the PSNI review, conducted | :05:04. | :05:14. | |
The review linked the suspect, whose name can't be made public to 46 | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
murders over a two-year period from 1974 to 1976. | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
The inquest heard that these murders involved 22 civilians, | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
including a seven-year-old boy, 21 soldiers, two police officers | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
The issue of on the run letters was also raised. | :05:30. | :05:38. | |
It's been claimed that a number of suspects in the Kingsmills | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
massacre received on the run letters from the British government. | :05:42. | :05:53. | |
A barrister asked if forensic evidence that | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
The coroner said other witnesses might be required to answer that. | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
The Taoiseach Enda Kenny has announced that he's stepping down | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
He'll remain as Taoiseach until a successor is chosen | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
by his party, and confirmed by the Dail. | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
Our Dublin correspondent Shane Harrison reports. | :06:11. | :06:18. | |
And Kenny succeeded his father in the Mayo by-election. I intend to | :06:19. | :06:29. | |
carry on the work of my father, to serve the greatest number of the | :06:30. | :06:37. | |
greatest good. Fine Gael leader and Taoiseach, he took over country in | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
crisis as a result of the property crash and banking collapse. On his | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
watch the Republic reading economic sovereignty from the EU and IMF. His | :06:48. | :06:54. | |
early years. It is from the Queen and president Obama as well as | :06:55. | :06:56. | |
unprecedented attacks on the Catholic Church. The rape and | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
torture of children were downplayed and managed to uphold the primacy of | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
the institution, its power and standing and reputation. But | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
austerity and water charges took their toll. In last year 's election | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
Fine Gael fared badly and only remained in office because of a deal | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
with its rival. His resignation was brought forward after he admitted a | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
conversation he had with a colleague never happened. There were no | :07:31. | :07:39. | |
lights, he has had huge trouble, friend in the media, and significant | :07:40. | :07:51. | |
trouble with the power crisis. He leaves office as Fine Gael 's most | :07:52. | :07:52. | |
accessible political leader. McCrory told colleagues that he will | :07:53. | :08:05. | |
stay in the role is to retire public prosecutions until a successor is | :08:06. | :08:06. | |
elected. Time for the weather. We do have few | :08:07. | :08:17. | |
scattered showers at the moment but they will give way to drier | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
conditions overnight, temperatures will dip, and thanks to the clearing | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
skies we can expect a fine start day tomorrow with good amount of | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
sunshine but through the day it's not going to stay completely dry. To | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
begin with, plenty of dry weather, it won't be until mid-morning that | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
we begin to seek medical missions coming in from the West, bringing in | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
scattered showers. Tomorrow, a similar picture, could start but the | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
showers begin to come in from the Atlantic, a fine start to the day, | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
when the sunshine, but the odd scattered showers likely to pop up | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
and also the day of scattered showers and some sunshine across | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
Scotland. By the middle of the afternoon, those showers could | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
affect almost anywhere so keep an eye out, one or two could be heavy. | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
In between, good amounts of sunshine, temperatures have been | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
down on today, just about normal for the time of year if not just a | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
little bit below. Tomorrow evening, some sunshine and showers for | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
nightfall and tomorrow night, plenty of clear skies. Friday gets off to a | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
promising start but like tomorrow, scattered showers will return. The | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
weekend, staying and settled with further scattered showers. | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
