Baby dolphin spotted with pod off Yorkshire coast

Hundreds attend vigil in Southport after three girls killed in stabbing named by police

 


Hundreds gathered for a vigil in Southport, where three girls were killed in the mass stabbing on Monday
A protest near the site of the stabbing attack in Southport has turned violent.

 


Hundreds of people gathered outside a mosque and began throwing bricks, bottles and other missiles at the mosque and police. At least one policeman was injured.

The crowds are still here and missiles continue to be thrown.

 

Police closed the main road through the seaside town due to the crowds.

Some businesses I spoke to today said they were closing early just so their staff could get down to the square in front of the Atkinson.
