:00:09. > :00:13.This is East Midlands Today. Tonight, police say they're
:00:13. > :00:17.treating a rush-hour shooting as attempted murder. Two shots were
:00:17. > :00:23.fired at this car as it stopped at traffic lights on a Nottingham
:00:24. > :00:29.Street. Howard tiny water filled jacket helped to save the life of
:00:29. > :00:39.this baby girl. -- how a tiny water-filled. We just can't believe

:00:48. > :00:56.Labour's leaders urged the company to make an edge indecision on new
:00:56. > :01:00.contracts. Good evening and welcome to the
:01:00. > :01:05.programme. First tonight, the police are treating the latest
:01:05. > :01:09.shooting in Nottingham as attempted murder. Two shots were fired into a
:01:09. > :01:16.car as it stopped at traffic lights in Hyson Green yesterday evening. A
:01:16. > :01:20.man has been arrested. The gunmen opened fire at the
:01:20. > :01:23.height of the evening rush-hour. You can see where two windows were
:01:23. > :01:28.blasted just behind the driver. The police don't think anyone was
:01:28. > :01:35.injured, but looking at the damage, that seems more like luck than
:01:35. > :01:40.judgment. The guy got out of the car with a gun. I heard two bigger
:01:40. > :01:46.bangs. I was crying on the phone to the police. I was crying like a
:01:46. > :01:50.baby. The shooting happened close to several other recent attacks.
:01:50. > :01:54.Nine days earlier, the teenager was shot dead outside a pub in share
:01:54. > :02:00.would. Another teenager and a woman were injured when a pellet gun was
:02:00. > :02:09.fired on Gregory but reviled. At the end of March, several gunship -
:02:09. > :02:14.- gunshots were reported in base for it. We are investigating
:02:14. > :02:18.potential links. The people of Nottingham are sick and tired of
:02:18. > :02:22.the sort of criminal behaviour. I appeal to everyone to make sure
:02:22. > :02:28.this does not return and we staggered out as soon as possible.
:02:28. > :02:33.Today, a 20-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the
:02:33. > :02:40.murder of another man. The police are pitting hide his ability
:02:40. > :02:44.patrols on the street to reassure people. -- high-visibility patrols.
:02:44. > :02:48.Jeremy, we have heard a lot about how gun crime is being tackled in
:02:48. > :02:52.Nottingham, but how much of a problem is it? We had just been
:02:52. > :02:57.given some interesting to us -- statistics for Nottinghamshire
:02:57. > :03:01.police. These show that last year the force recorded 87 crimes
:03:01. > :03:05.involving real guns. A lot of those would have been threats at gunpoint,
:03:05. > :03:11.but there were up least 18 incidents where criminals opened
:03:11. > :03:17.fire. -- at least. It has also emerged that five people were
:03:17. > :03:24.seriously injured from shootings in 2011. The good news is that no one
:03:24. > :03:28.was shot dead last year. What kind of guns are we talking about here?
:03:28. > :03:33.These figures only count a lethal weapons, things like shot guns and
:03:33. > :03:40.handguns. They don't include their guns. They show that
:03:40. > :03:44.Nottinghamshire is still dealing with a lot of gun crime. Derby
:03:44. > :03:48.police dealt with one man who killed several farm animals. In
:03:48. > :03:52.Leicestershire, several people received minor injuries from
:03:52. > :03:57.imitation weapons and they also dealt with the kidnapping, where
:03:57. > :04:01.someone was should -- threatened with a shotgun.
:04:01. > :04:10.Three pupils at a secondary school in Leicester have been diagnosed
:04:10. > :04:15.with tuberculosis. More than 200 teenagers are now being tested.
:04:15. > :04:19.Good evening. The Health Protection Agency is not treating these three
:04:19. > :04:24.cases as a map -- and a break at this stage, which means they don't
:04:24. > :04:28.think the students passed at between themselves, but they are in
:04:28. > :04:33.fact three separate cases. They plan to screen more than 200 people
:04:33. > :04:37.that the school next week. Once largely consigned to history with
:04:37. > :04:41.the use of antibiotics and the treatment of patients in
:04:41. > :04:49.sanatoriums. TB is a bacterial infection that has spread through
:04:49. > :04:53.the air, usually through coughing. They found it at this college back
:04:53. > :04:57.in 2001. More than 300 pupils have various stages of the disease,
:04:57. > :05:02.making it the biggest outbreak of TB in a school in the UK. Two years
:05:02. > :05:07.later there was a cluster at this Community College. It does not
:05:07. > :05:12.support these three cases at Hamilton are linked. -- it is not
:05:12. > :05:18.thought. It is good that they know their children are being tested and
:05:18. > :05:22.they will be treated. They need have no concerns whatsoever, there
:05:22. > :05:27.is no chance of the spreading just because a couple of the students in
:05:27. > :05:36.school are unwell with TB. those three students are now well
:05:36. > :05:42.and back at college. 220 pupils in year 10 will be screened next week.
:05:42. > :05:47.Victoria, when did these cases come to light? The first Kes was
:05:47. > :05:53.diagnosed in December, but it wasn't until the second and third
:05:53. > :06:00.Kes came to him light in March that the Health Protection Agency got

:06:06. > :06:10.blood tests had been carried out two months later, to give have --

:06:21. > :06:31.cats on tour. They're on their way to the Olympics. But first, a
:06:31. > :06:35.stopover in the Derbyshire Savannah. Train passengers have had their
:06:35. > :06:38.journeys disrupted today because of strike action. It will go on until
:06:38. > :06:43.midnight and is the first in a series of strikes by the train
:06:43. > :06:50.drivers' union, ASLEF. They say it is put it -- to protect their
:06:50. > :06:57.pensions, but the train companies as they had nothing to worry about.
:06:57. > :06:59.Got to catch that train. It is on a day when East Midlands drivers are
:07:00. > :07:04.on strike. They're trying to protect their pensions. The train
:07:04. > :07:09.company says there is no risk to the pensions. Passengers at Derby
:07:09. > :07:14.station are left trying to cope. it is for a good reason, fair
:07:14. > :07:19.enough. I think everybody should fight for their rights, but it
:07:19. > :07:22.affects and penalises those who are paying their wages. I meant to be
:07:22. > :07:26.teaching children this afternoon, it means I won't get there and I
:07:26. > :07:30.will let them down. East Midlands train said the strike action and

:07:40. > :07:44.ASLEF says East Midlands trains wants to cut the amount of money
:07:44. > :07:49.going into their pension fund. It is claimed by ASLEF that that would
:07:49. > :07:53.save the company �2 million over to my ideas. Drivers would save around
:07:53. > :07:58.�500 a year as well. But the union said the amount of money going into
:07:58. > :08:01.the pension pot shouldn't be reduced. It will leave a big hole
:08:01. > :08:05.to be filled come the next valuation, in which case we will
:08:05. > :08:09.have to look at what we can do to make the pension fund viable. They
:08:09. > :08:17.are going to be in a mess if we accept these changes. Our members
:08:17. > :08:22.and the company can reduce their contribution rate for the scheme to
:08:22. > :08:25.remain well-funded. Today's strike goes on till midnight, the first of
:08:25. > :08:31.six strikes planned for Tuesdays and Thursdays over the next three
:08:31. > :08:36.weeks. Leicestershire Police have released

:08:50. > :08:54.They say at this stage they still can't confirm whether the death as

:08:58. > :09:05.lost its alcohol licence. The Old Bell Hotel dates back to the 17th

:09:09. > :09:13.incident outside the pub. The city council says it is suspending the
:09:13. > :09:17.licence for three months. A mother says her baby daughter can
:09:17. > :09:21.look forward to a brighter future all because of a special cooling
:09:21. > :09:26.unit. Medical research has shown cooling the brain of babies who
:09:26. > :09:29.were deprived of oxygen at birth can lessen the risk of damage.
:09:29. > :09:35.Sarah Tomlinson believes her daughter Rosie could have died
:09:35. > :09:39.without the treatment at Nottingham City Hospital. Rosie had a very
:09:39. > :09:43.tough start in life. Her twin brother was delivered naturally,
:09:43. > :09:47.but complications meant she was starved of oxygen at birth. From
:09:47. > :09:51.Derby, she was transferred to Nottingham for could link to
:09:51. > :09:56.minimise the risk of brain damage. It was a nightmare for Sarah and
:09:56. > :10:01.her husband Simon. We spent days crying. Simon came back to tell me
:10:01. > :10:05.how she was doing and we just spent that evening weeping. She was so
:10:05. > :10:09.poorly that you couldn't believe it was your baby that with there,
:10:09. > :10:14.lying there. It is a small, water- filled a jacket that has been shown
:10:14. > :10:19.to make a big difference. The reason is not understood, but
:10:19. > :10:23.reducing the brain temperature seemed to switch off the reactions
:10:23. > :10:27.that can lead to brain damage. The normal body temperature is 37
:10:27. > :10:30.degrees. After about 24 hours, there is further damage that can
:10:30. > :10:35.occur and we can prevent some of that by calling babies'
:10:35. > :10:40.temperatures down. The twins are five months or today and the latest
:10:40. > :10:46.scan is good news. There is no haemorrhage, no bleeding and she is
:10:46. > :10:53.doing well. Rosie is a determined little madam with a cheeky edge!
:10:53. > :10:58.The family is now raising money towards it to say thanks.
:10:58. > :11:04.The Labour Party leader Ed Miliband had urged the government to speed
:11:04. > :11:08.up the warding off the multi- million pound Crossrail contract to
:11:08. > :11:11.Derby-based Bombardier. He said the government needed to end the
:11:11. > :11:16.uncertainty over the future of Britain's last remaining train
:11:16. > :11:19.makers. The Labour leader under cover. If
:11:19. > :11:24.only Bombardier manufactured umbrella as, they wouldn't be quite
:11:24. > :11:34.so worried over future contracts. The demand for Bombardier umbrella
:11:34. > :11:40.as almost out did supply. On the production line, Ed Miliband was
:11:40. > :11:45.there, accompanied by his shadow chancellor Ed Balls. They met some
:11:45. > :11:49.of the Bombardier's 1,100 strong workforce. They sought some of the
:11:49. > :11:53.new carriages destined for the London Underground. But it is the
:11:53. > :11:57.Crossrail contract that Bombardier are holding out for. It will be
:11:57. > :12:05.several months until the government announces who has won the deal.
:12:05. > :12:09.should be done in the right way and it should take account of all the
:12:09. > :12:14.right things to do. Some of the young people who were up here, they
:12:14. > :12:19.are on apprenticeships. They said their mates on the door. We need
:12:19. > :12:26.more companies like Bombardier. There was the contract at Siemens
:12:26. > :12:35.that resulted in big redundancies at Bombardier. The Crossrail is
:12:35. > :12:44.like the be all and end all. It is key. We want to be part of the
:12:44. > :12:50.solution, not part of the problem. A Labour leader's visit was
:12:50. > :12:56.significant. With just 48 hours to go until the crucial elections in
:12:56. > :13:02.Derby, Ed Miliband might well be back to drawing him with the party
:13:02. > :13:06.celebrations. Plans to relocate an indoor market in the Leicestershire
:13:06. > :13:11.town have been scrapped after public protest. East Riding Council
:13:11. > :13:15.had planned to redevelop the Market Hall site but 18,000 people signed
:13:15. > :13:19.a petition against the idea. Traders are now claiming victory
:13:19. > :13:23.after the council decided not to go ahead with the project. It is the
:13:23. > :13:26.greatest news that we could have wished for. Now we want to forget
:13:26. > :13:32.about it and look forward to the future. I didn't think it would
:13:32. > :13:37.stay open, but I'm very pleased it is. I have still got my job. We had

:15:10. > :15:16.of attraction from passers-by. 24 hours later, and despite the rain,
:15:16. > :15:22.the new inhabitants appear to be a talking point. They are very big. I
:15:22. > :15:28.like them, but it would be better if they were out of the box. That

:19:58. > :20:05.fantastically well over the year, and we want to finish it off with
:20:05. > :20:13.something to reward the fans. Ilkeston FC was rescued from
:20:13. > :20:19.oblivion two years ago. The club was reborn, and the future of the
:20:19. > :20:25.club's youth system was saved. The supporters played a major factor in
:20:25. > :20:34.the club's survival. We have tried to listen and understand how they
