I'm Claudia-Liza Amah. the BBC's news teams where you are.

:00:00.:00:16.

Two teenage boys are being treated in hospital after a double shooting

:00:17.:00:19.

No arrests have been made and police are appealing for witnesses.

:00:20.:00:23.

Tolu Adeoye sent us this from Forest Gate.

:00:24.:00:27.

A 14-year-old is in a critical condition in hospital,

:00:28.:00:29.

and a 17-year-old has suffered what have been described

:00:30.:00:31.

as life changing injuries after yesterday's double shooting.

:00:32.:00:33.

We understand police were called here to Moore Walk in Forest Gate

:00:34.:00:36.

They found the two teenagers suffering gunshot wounds.

:00:37.:00:45.

Both were taken to an East London hospital where they are still

:00:46.:00:48.

Police still investigating but they spoke yesterday of serious

:00:49.:00:58.

There are now extra police officers on patrol in this area.

:00:59.:01:01.

These shootings came as the most recent Met police figures published

:01:02.:01:04.

Crimes in the capital were up from around 1700

:01:05.:01:11.

Four teenagers have already lost their lives this year

:01:12.:01:15.

One of them was here in Newham at the end of August.

:01:16.:01:24.

The police have said there is no place for violence on our streets.

:01:25.:01:28.

They are appealing for people to come forward if they have

:01:29.:01:30.

information about this crime or any information about people carrying

:01:31.:01:33.

A man from Surrey whose brother was shot dead while on a family

:01:34.:01:46.

holiday in the French Alps five years ago today,

:01:47.:01:48.

says he's frustrated with the lack of progress in the investigation.

:01:49.:01:50.

The bodies of his brother, his wife, mother-in-law and a French cyclist

:01:51.:01:53.

Zaid al-Hilli described the French investigation into the murders

:01:54.:01:59.

Our Home Affairs Correspondent Nick Beake is here with more on this.

:02:00.:02:05.

And this is a story that shocked many people here in the UK.

:02:06.:02:11.

Lots of people might remember this, the family holiday that ended in

:02:12.:02:16.

brutal murder. Five years on it remains a mystery. The bodies of

:02:17.:02:21.

Saad al-Hilli, his wife and her mother were found in a deserted road

:02:22.:02:27.

in a forest near Annecy in France. Also a cyclist was killed during the

:02:28.:02:31.

attack. One of the daughters, just four years old at the time, was

:02:32.:02:35.

discovered hiding under her mother's body in the car and an older sister

:02:36.:02:39.

was found with serious head injuries after being shot and beaten, but she

:02:40.:02:45.

survived. We are now hearing that Saad al-Hilli, his brother from

:02:46.:02:50.

Surrey has been talking about the French police investigation and says

:02:51.:02:51.

he is deeply frustrated by it. From the beginning, they handled

:02:52.:02:52.

the whole case very badly. The investigation itself was based

:02:53.:02:55.

on conjecture rather And that's why the whole

:02:56.:03:00.

thing has failed. Zaid al-Hilli himself was treated as

:03:01.:03:19.

a suspect for a time by police before being told he wasn't going to

:03:20.:03:24.

be charged because there was no evidence. There was speculation

:03:25.:03:29.

about a family feud, was it something to do with Mr al-Hilli's

:03:30.:03:35.

work as a satellite engineer? Five years on we are no closer to finding

:03:36.:03:40.

out who was behind these dreadful murders five years ago.

:03:41.:03:43.

Police are searching for a cyclist they believe could help

:03:44.:03:45.

in their investigation after a man was stabbed to death in Camden.

:03:46.:03:48.

The 20-year-old was killed on Hampstead Road yesterday.

:03:49.:03:50.

Incredibly, a man who was cycling in the area helped an officer arrest

:03:51.:03:53.

who's now been arrested on suspicion of murder.

:03:54.:03:57.

Police say the cyclist is not a suspect.

:03:58.:04:02.

A woman's appeared in court charged with making fraudulent claims to get

:04:03.:04:05.

support offered to survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire.

:04:06.:04:08.

46-year-old Joyce Msokeri from Sutton is charged

:04:09.:04:10.

At least 80 people died in the high rise in June.

:04:11.:04:18.

She's the second person to be charged with fraud

:04:19.:04:20.

Wheel clamping is being reintroduced at several train station

:04:21.:04:23.

Govia Thameslink, which runs Southern Rail, operates several car

:04:24.:04:29.

parks in the south east, and says it is only "targetting

:04:30.:04:32.

But transport groups say the practice is illogical.

:04:33.:04:38.

They say the best way to stop them is through the courts and not

:04:39.:04:41.

clamping. 20 youth clubs in the capital

:04:42.:04:43.

are set to get funding of more It's hoped the government money

:04:44.:04:46.

will help youngsters from disadvantaged areas build

:04:47.:04:49.

confidence through improved sports, The money's part of a ?40 million

:04:50.:04:51.

pot going to groups But other clubs not receiving

:04:52.:04:55.

funding say the scheme is unfair. Now, you've probably seen

the Thames Tideway Tunnel, otherwise known

as the Super Highway. Sonja Jessop hopped on board

for a final goodbye. These bright yellow Duck Tours

:05:20.:05:21.

have been turning heads We do regard ourselves with being

:05:22.:05:26.

an iconic product of London. One of the great benefits we bring

:05:27.:05:48.

to London is that other So they don't have it in Paris

or in other European countries. The tours will stop

because they won't be Thames Water is taking it over

to build a new super sewer. It says it's vital to remove tens

:05:58.:06:01.

of millions of tonnes I'm afraid we have looked

:06:02.:06:04.

at lots of alternatives. We have worked collaboratively

:06:05.:06:07.

with Duck Tours. We have tried to push back the time

:06:08.:06:09.

as long as possible until such time as they had to stop their operations

:06:10.:06:14.

but there is really no practical, safe alternative

:06:15.:06:20.

to the one we have now. These amphibious trucks were first

:06:21.:06:22.

made in the US in the 1940s. Many of them actually

:06:23.:06:25.

served on D-Day and in You can tell a bit of its American

:06:26.:06:28.

history because, look, the driver is actually sitting

:06:29.:06:32.

on the wrong side. More than 1.8 million passengers

:06:33.:06:36.

have travelled on London Duck Tours Although services were suspended

:06:37.:06:39.

for a time in 2013 when one For many passengers this

:06:40.:06:44.

was a special trip, especially for Emma and her son Oliver,

:06:45.:06:54.

who has cancer. We had a big fund-raising effort

:06:55.:06:57.

to raise money for Oliver's bucket list and this is the first thing

:06:58.:07:00.

we have been able to do When we found out it was closing,

:07:01.:07:03.

we moved his treatment around and the doctors made it possible

:07:04.:07:08.

for us to come to London John hopes the Duck Tours

:07:09.:07:10.

might return one day. But in the meantime,

:07:11.:07:16.

what will become of the vehicles? We are considering

working in Portugal. We have also been looking, we've

been asked to look at Loch Ness. But they set sail on the Thames

of the day's weather. It's quite warm, surprisingly,

:07:39.:07:50.

despite the cloud we have today. This was earlier this morning. A bit

:07:51.:07:56.

of low cloud, murky out there with light and patchy rain, but overall a

:07:57.:07:59.

dry morning. It has been rather humid. At six o'clock this morning

:08:00.:08:04.

we started at 17 Celsius in central London. Very mild. Some patches of

:08:05.:08:11.

blue sky and a bit of sunshine, heating things up a bit more. This

:08:12.:08:15.

afternoon, more of the same, dry and rather cloudy. But we are hanging

:08:16.:08:22.

onto the humidity. You might get a little bit of rain, one or two

:08:23.:08:26.

showers ahead of a cold front head in our direction. If you get the

:08:27.:08:29.

brightest spell, that could spark off a heavy shower here or there,

:08:30.:08:33.

but not everywhere will see them. Temperatures likely to reach 20 or

:08:34.:08:39.

21 Celsius. Feeling quite sticky, as it did overnight. The cold front

:08:40.:08:44.

moves across us this evening. That will introduce cooler and fresher

:08:45.:08:47.

air behind it. It will not be as sticky tonight as it was last night.

:08:48.:08:53.

11 or 12 is the minimum temperature. It leads the way to a chilly start

:08:54.:08:58.

tomorrow morning, but a brighter one. We will have spells of sunshine

:08:59.:09:02.

with cloud bubbling up as we head further through. The temperature

:09:03.:09:06.

tomorrow is similar, but it will feel fresher, we will lose the

:09:07.:09:11.

humidity and looking at a maximum of around 20 Celsius. Similar on

:09:12.:09:15.

Thursday, before turning more unsettled and rainy on Friday.

:09:16.:09:17.

Riz Lateef will be here with our 6:30 evening programme.

:09:18.:09:21.

But for now, from us all, a very good afternoon.

:09:22.:09:38.

I don't take well to people who lie to me.
