Good evening. News Channel.

Footballer Nile Ranger has `dmitted causing criminal damage at ` block

:00:11.:00:14.

He was caught on CCTV kicking in the door to a lift in April.

:00:15.:00:20.

The footage also appears to show him hitting a woman who was with him

:00:21.:00:23.

He was arrested and held on suspicion of common assatlt `

:00:24.:00:27.

Nile Ranger, filmed by CCTV cameras on the 13th of April this ydar.

:00:28.:00:36.

Locked out of his apartment building in Swindon.

:00:37.:00:39.

But a few moments before, this is what the cameras here captured.

:00:40.:00:47.

The former Swindon Town footballer appears to slap his female companion

:00:48.:00:51.

twice in the face, and then punch her a third time

:00:52.:00:54.

Ranger arrived for trial at Swindon Magistrates Court this

:00:55.:00:58.

morning, facing a single ch`rge of causing criminal damage,

:00:59.:01:03.

His punishment today ` a fine of ?3,185 for the damage to thd door.

:01:04.:01:11.

But many have already questhoned why there are no other charges regarding

:01:12.:01:14.

what seems to be an assault ` seen in the same video.

:01:15.:01:19.

Today, the CPS told us they had never been

:01:20.:01:21.

asked to consider a charge of assault against Nile Ranger `

:01:22.:01:24.

They told us that the evidence against Ranger didn't

:01:25.:01:31.

meet the threshhold needed for a criminal conviction.

:01:32.:01:35.

Ranger has played for the England under`19 squad in the past.

:01:36.:01:39.

He played in the Premiership for Newcastle before he joined

:01:40.:01:42.

But in May this year, his contract was terminated with

:01:43.:01:48.

Mr Ranger, do you have anything to say to us?

:01:49.:01:55.

Nile Ranger had nothing to say about the CCTV,

:01:56.:02:00.

which was filmed in flats jtst around the corner from the court.

:02:01.:02:03.

In that CCTV, when you're kicking the lift,

:02:04.:02:05.

In May this year, he was fined ?1,000 at Liverpool Magistr`tes

Do you have anything to say to your young fans, who might have watched

that video? Meanwhile, campaigners have

:02:32.:02:33.

expressed their concerns th`t there will be no criminal investigation

the redeveloped Reading station ?900 million is being spent

transforming the station Network Rail says

:03:08.:03:09.

the work will remove Reading's reputation as a bottleneck,

and should improve journeys Reading is one of the UK's

great and good of the railw`y. Outside, the people in orange

:03:39.:03:44.

jackets waited Her Majesty looked around the station, named and

engineering training and unveiled a plaque. Then, she rode down a long

:03:48.:03:56.

escalator to meet the crowd outside. Time for a group photograph with the

orange army. Their pristine clothing was unusually clean. It was very

:04:04.:04:10.

moving, a good milestone for us We have been working on this for four

:04:11.:04:14.

years. I think we have done very well. The station is not yet

:04:15.:04:19.

complete, but it is nearly there. Sometimes, railway people are

:04:20.:04:22.

treated with a little bit of disdain, and I think it is

:04:23.:04:27.

completely unfair. The people who work for me work really hard and

:04:28.:04:30.

they are really proud of wh`t they are doing. Today is a manifdstation

:04:31.:04:35.

of that. The whole visit took just over half an hour. It is thd second

Pouring in the final concrete on top of the viaduct. It is more than a

:05:01.:05:04.

mile long, through the middle of Reading. It will carry the lain

trains from Southampton docks. That will remove the biggest bottleneck

:05:16.:05:21.

on the great Western, and 400 people a day are working on it. Thhs will

:05:22.:05:28.

add four trains each hour, dach way, through the station, every day, on

:05:29.:05:33.

trains through Reading. Every day you used to sit waiting outside the

:05:34.:05:38.

station, but this structure takes away that bottleneck a. The first

:05:39.:05:47.

trains will cross this viadtct on the 4th of January. The track

:05:48.:05:51.

towards Southampton will be finished at Easter, and the five year project

You may be woken by a thunder storm but you may not be able to sleep

because of the heat and the humidity. A warm night and a misty
