Hello, I'm Laura Trevelyan with BBC News,

broadcasting in the UK and around the world.

He was reaching for his wallet, and the officer shot him in the arm.

The aftermath of a black man being shot by police in Minnesota

is captured live on video by his girlfriend.

The footage is sparking further protests.

In the uncertain world of British politics,

the next Prime Minister will be a woman.

Theresa May and Andrea Leadsom are the last two standing.

Women may also hold the keys to who wins the White House next,

so what are voters looking for in a candidate?

And could one restaurant be serving up pasta

We go to meet some of the real-life ghost busters.

The video following the shooting of a black man by police

in Minnesota is sparking outrage and protests.

It's the second such incident captured on camera in 48 hours.

The victim, Philando Castile, had been pulled over and was reaching

for his driver's license, according to his girlfriend, when he was shot.

She then captured the aftermath and streamed it live.

The BBC's Nick Bryant reports, and a warning -

some of the images in this report are distressing.

He's licensed, he's carrying but he's licensed to carry.

He was trying to get out his ID and his wallet.

The immediate aftermath of another police shooting,

this time not just caught on camera but streamed live on Facebook.

He was briefed he had a firearm and he was reaching for his wallet

and the officer just shot him in his arm.

The female passenger in the car, Diamond Reynolds has just

seen her boyfriend shot by a policeman and he's fast losing

I told him not to reach for anything.

You told him to get his ID, Sir, his driver's licence.

Philando Castile had been pulled over because his rear light wasn't

working and apparently told the officer he had

a legally-purchased concealed weapon with him in the car.

Mr Castile had worked as a cafeteria supervisor

Protesters converged on the governor's mansion,

draping it with police tape, taken from the scene of the shooting

and giving angry voice to now familiar cries.

Then, Diamond Reynolds stepped before the crowd.

The police put four, five shots into him for no reason.

It's the latest in a long line of police shootings involving

African-Americans and the second high-profile incident this week.

This is footage from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, showing a black man,

Alton Stirling, being held down by police and shot several times.

So another police shooting, another black family left to mourn,

and this is happening with alarming regularity.

Already this year in America, 123 African-Americans

The fear is that this could be the start of a long, hot summer,

words which for decades have come with a sense of foreboding.

The BBC's Barbara Plett Usher is also in Minneapolis,

and she joins us now with the latest.

What is the mood there in the wake of this killing? There is sadness.

Earlier today, I was at the scene of the shooting and people are putting

down flowers. People work too upset to speak with me. They said they

were very upset, numb, upset. They were very emotional about it. There

was also regret and distress. There were also elderly white people who

took part in the equal rights movement in the 1960s. There is also

a lot of anger especially from the speakers here. They are tired of

seeing their brothers and sisters killed. Although it is a multiracial

feel, you can get some pointed comments like, you white people,

usual white privilege to help us. The president said he was deeply

disturbed by this, but it should not drive a wedge between communities

and their law enforcement. What people said you about law

enforcement in the wake of this? There is a lot of anger. And long

term our happiness. One man was a pastor, he was a war veteran. He

says it feels like a war zone mentality. The people get pulled

over by the police, they had to position themselves as prisoners of

war and just survive. Some other strong statements from here as well.

You get people saying, they are not all bad, it is the system that needs

to be changed. One man said we needed it better training for the

police. There is a feeling it is versus them, so there is a press for

change in this situation. Who is going to investigate this death? The

governor said there would be an investigation from a government

bureau at the state level. He was also going to see if the Department

of Justice could assess whether they could investigate. If it did that

kind of investigation here, it would be recognising there could be a

racial element to this shooting. It was also -- would also show how much

prominence this kind of thing is getting now, where not only the

governor says he is shocked by it but it gets to federal level quite

quickly. Thank you. Now, let's face it -

lately, British politics and stability haven't

exactly gone hand-in-hand. a woman is on track to become

the next Prime Minister. In their ballot to select

a new party leader, Conservative MPs narrowed it down

to Theresa May and Andrea Leadsom. The winner will be

decided in September. Our political editor,

Laura Kuenssberg, and there is flash

photography in her report. The march of Theresa May, striding

easily onto the ticket. Miles ahead of both

her rivals today. Her supporters already crying,

"Prime Minister". This vote shows that

the Conservative Party can come together and that

under my leadership, it will. We need proven leadership,

to negotiate the best deal for leaving the European Union,

to unite our party and our country, and to make Britain a country that

works not for the privileged few In the grand rooms of Westminster,

the vote was clear. Therefore Michael Gove,

having the lowest number of votes, With Michael Gove out

and the Energy Minister Andrea Leadsom trailing,

Mrs May's supporters were delighted. Not quite waving on the steps

of number ten yet, but she has just won the very clear endorsement

of the majority of Tory MPs. Her backers hope her experience

makes her the clear favourite. She can truly say as we go

into the country that she is Are you surprised by how

strong the result was? She got 165 earlier in the week,

which was fantastic and overwhelming in itself, but to go

forward even further, touching the 200, is a clear

indication of what parliamentarians think we need in our next Prime

Minister. But traditional Tories are excited

by Andrea Leadsom, her rival. The Eurosceptic energy minister

is far less experienced. Her colleagues need reassurance

about her record, but one wing of the party isn't enthusiastic

enough to march along the river in an unusual show

of Conservative support. Before the referendum,

she was hardly known. How difficult was it

to decide to run? I feel, having played a part

in showing this country the prospects for us outside

of the EU, I just felt I needed to put myself forward to offer

to lead the way through it, But just a couple of days

into the race, she's already been I spent the best part of ten years

in BZW and Barclays and the best part of ten years

in Invesco perpetual. I've also had a part-time

job in Sainsburys. I started life as a 14-year-old

silver service waitress. You know, my CV

is incredibly varied, But her backers think she can win

over the Tory members I love the idea of two women

battling it out, showing us exactly how politics can

change for the better. Justice Secretary Michael Gove

betrayed his friend Boris Johnson I'm naturally disappointed I have

not been able to make it through to the final

round of this leadership contest. This is a moment Theresa May's team

will treasure, a more successful start to the race

than they could have hoped. But now MPs lose control -

the contest goes to the country. It is the Conservative Party,

not Parliament, who makes the call. Laura Kuenssberg, BBC News,

Westminster. And there was no break

from presidential politics in the US today as Republicans in the House

of Representatives grilled FBI Director James Comey on his decision

that Hillary Clinton did not deserve prosecution for using

a private email server And Donald Trump was also

on Capitol Hill, meeting privately with Republican leaders

as they try to sort out who is willing to speak

at the convention later this month. I'm joined by our North America

reporter, Anthony Zurcher. First of all, the FBI director got

like a grilling, didn't he? The Republicans were not happy with his

decision not to recommend an indictment or charges against Louis

Clinton. He said there was no criminal intent on her part, and she

didn't lie to the FBI. He believed that she did create this e-mail

server for her convenience and not to hide document or anything like

that. Obviously, Republicans were not buying that and they were

expected something -- acting something more. Could they find

something they can attack Hillary Clinton with? The FBI director said

he had investigated whether she had lied to Congress. He needed a

referral for that, and the chair said, we will give you a referral.

Conceivably, we could get another round of investigations into Hillary

Clinton and whether she lied in testimony before Congress. Some news

on Hillary Clinton, the New York Times is reporting that she will be

endorsed by her one-time rival, Bernie Sanders, next week. What will

be the significance of that? It is about time. The campaign has been

over since the beginning of June, and Bernie Sanders has held out. He

still has a large constituency, and this will be a way to bring the

party together before the Democratic convention, avoid any kind of

protest or difficulty in Philadelphia when they all gathered

to meet, and bring the party together, solidify her left flank so

she has an enthusiasm and turnout in the general election which she will

need. Turning to Donald Trump, he was in Washington today and wasn't

he? Who was the meeting and how did it go? He was meeting with

congressional Republicans. We have to look at Republican disunity. The

people that Trump met with verse, things went well. When he got in the

room with Republican senators, who were in car free election battles,

there was a lot more anger, a lot more resentment from some of the

sitting senators. One got into it with Donald Trump. One senator sat

it out, and Donald Trump called him a loser, saying he would win in his

state. Ted Cruz, one of the Republican opponents during the

primary campaign, has just said that he will accept a speaking bit. Other

than that, we don't know a whole lot. A populace -- popular senator

from Iowa may speak. If there is anything interesting, any unusual

people taking the stage, they haven't been revealed. Thank you for

joining us. Well, there are still

four months to go before voters head to the polls

to decide this election, and the only thing for certain

is that women will be decisive But what are female voters

looking for in a candidate and how do Hillary Clinton

and Donald Trump stack up? Those are the questions

that the BBC's Katty Kay You call women you do not

like fat pigs, dogs, Donald Trump's rhetoric

towards women has become a flash point in a presidential election

pitting a man against a woman. It is said to be

the most gender-driven with Hillary Clinton the first ever

female nominee for the White House. Research has showed that they have

decided the last five US elections. Donald Trump is currently polling

worse with women than any Millions of women did vote

for him in the primaries. She will be a Pennsylvania delegate

at the Republican convention. She owns a gardening business

and likes his views on trade. I think he will do the best job

to keep us safe He definitely knows

how to run a business. We are going to Philadelphia

and we are going to win! Lynn is clearly not moved

by the historic nature For many American women,

the possibility of putting a woman in the White House after 44 male

presidents is irresistible. Is it important for you that she is

a woman and would be the Her campaign has thrown up

an interesting phenomenon. A generational gap

among female voters. Older women seem to support Hillary

Clinton because they urgently want a female president

and they want it now. Younger women tend to feel confident

they are going to get one at some point in their lifetime

and they are just not sure that they want it to

be Hillary Clinton. Amy, a Democratic senator

from Minnesota, thinks Hillary Clinton is able

to successfully reach You have got a generation that

did not see her in those roles. Many of them were hardly voting

when she was Secretary of State. She needs to reintroduce herself

in a non-primary setting Economically conservative

but socially liberal. She has voted Republican

and Democrat in the past. She is struggling with

who to vote for this year. We need to regulate the economics

in this country more. That is probably my draw,

a bit, to Donald Trump. He has that economic ground and has

made a successful business of it. Her foreign policy

background draws me to her. I feel more confident in having

somebody that has sat at the table I am very torn between being

a businesswoman and being a woman. Of course, nobody knows

exactly how many women will vote, or which candidate

they will vote for. If we did, we would already be able

to say who is going to win. What we do know is women will decide

who lives in the White House after Barack Obama,

whether it is America's 45th male And you can catch much more

on Katty's analysis on BBC World News and on the News

Channel in the UK this weekend. Now let's look at some

of the day's other news. Iraqi officials say

the number of people killed in Sunday's suicide bombing

in Baghdad is now known to be 292. The attack targeted a shopping

complex in a Shia Muslim district. The so-called Islamic State group

has said it was behind the bombing, the deadliest in the country

since the 2003 US-led invasion. The German parliament has passed

a new law defining rape, clarifying that "No means No",

even if a victim did not fight back. Critics have argued that Germany

has long lagged behind other developed nations

when it comes to its rape laws. The new law classifies groping

as a sex crime, and makes it easier

to prosecute assaults. At least 21 people have been

injured, some of them seriously, after an explosion went off

on a commuter train in Taipei. The capital's official news agency

is reporting local police as saying the explosive

looked like a firecracker. Taiwan's Premier has ordered

government agencies to form a team Over the Damian Johnson

in the BBC's Sport Centre. France and Germany are playing for a

place in the final of Euro 2016. There was a disputed penalty for

France. An hour gone, a really atmospheric ground, and the majority

of the fans are supporting France. The latest core remains 1-0 to

France. Serena Williams will play Angelique

Gerber in the women's singles final. Williams earned her place with ease,

winning 6-2, 6-0. She reaches her night with Northern final. I'm very

happy. I was focused today because I know we have had a. -- we have had a

lot of tough matches before. Are you surprised you one as easily as you

did? It is never easy. You have to fight for every point.

Her opponent beat Serena's older sister, Venus. Venus won the

title... It is amazing. To beat Venus, it is always a really tough

match. She is a champion, and she has once the said. That is why am

happy about my game and my first final here at Wimbledon.

Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg have been warned by the team that they

could be punished if they crash into each other again. It comes after the

two collided while disputing the lead on the final lap of Sunday's

Grand Prix, which Hamilton went on to win. The team said in a statement

they had strengthened the rules of engagement to include much greater

deterrence to contact between the two cars. It doesn't really change

anything. We are still able to race, which is a positive. There are no

team orders, whatever it is called, which is great for the fans. I think

ever one should be excited. And you are both completely clear what it

will mean, and what these greater deterrence are? Yes. Are the scary?

I should say yes. Mark Cavendish has won his latest Tour De France stage.

His third win of this year's tour. Cavendish is now moved clear in

stage wins. Before I go, just time to tell you that the latest score in

Marseille, with an hour gone, remains 1-0 to France.

Now, more than 30 years after Ghostbusters introduced us

the long-awaited remake hits the screen next week.

The first film sparked huge interest in the supernatural and there

are now thousands of paranormal investigators working in the US.

So, when something goes bump in the night -

In Maryland's historic downtown Frederick, this Italian striker

subbing of a landmark. It was built in 1887. For the last 30 years, it

has been a restaurant. The customers seem happy, but the staff have been

having some very strange experiences. Saeed has worked for 16

years and has numerous stories of spooky shenanigans, particularly in

this part of the restaurant. On the stairs... You heard something

running up the stairs Gretchen muck running very fast. In the hope of

getting to the bottom of the Phantom footsteps, the best rod has called

in a local ghostbusting team. As we go through, we set up the cameras to

face certain locations. We have the DVR system hooked up now, which will

be a surveillance for those cameras. We have a base station where our

teams can stop by and look at any visual appearances. If there are any

spirits present, can you state your name? This sandbox records what the

spirits save. What they say can be startling. We just got Satan on

them. We are only interacting with redeem spirits from the light. We

are not entertaining that. Having detected seven spirits and something

not very pleasant, the team has now switched from using a sound box. It

should allow any spirits that want to doing it to articulate more

clearly. Malcolm, are you there? Help me. Help me, we just got help

me. What Dini to help you with? More than a third of Americans believe in

ghosts. If you are not one of them, it might be worth noting that the

team and most other paranormal investigators don't charge for their

services. Mainly because what they find is so open to interpretation. I

don't know if you could ever say without a shadow of doubt, 100%,

that there will be a definitive answer to whether life after death

exists, whether spirits are around us. You can have the proof that all

you want, but if they don't believe it, they don't believe it. So is

this restaurant haunted? Does a spirit called Malcolm really need

help? And did the team actually encounter a demonic entity? At the

end of the day, it depends entirely on what you believe.

Very spooky. Personally, I cannot believe it is 30 years since the

first Ghostbusters. I can't wait to see the all-female team! Quite the

theme from tonight. Well, that brings

this broadcast to a close, but remember you can find much more

on all the days news at our website.
