7:00 pm
the victorious spanish team celebrated and posed with the trophy as they arrive home in madrid. lam iamasa i am as a their maturity, welcome to the programme. donald trump says he wants to "bring america together" — after surviving an assassination attempt at a campaign rally on saturday. mr trump called it a miracle, adding "i'm supposed to be dead." earlier, president biden addressed the nation calling for unity, and urging americans to lower the political temperature. these are live pictures from the repubican national covention in milwakee where in the next hour mr trump will attend the he's expected to be confirmed as the party's candidate for the us presidential election in november.
7:01 pm
donald trump is also expected to name who his running mate will be. stay with us. the developments here, and we are going to cross over to the national convention no. we are live in milwaukee _ the national convention no. we are live in milwaukee covering - the national convention no. we are live in milwaukee covering the - live in milwaukee covering the republican national convention which is gotten under way. you can hear behind me the voice on the stage, and what is expected to happen now is a roll call of the different states that are here, represented by the delegates, and they would present the results of the primary votes in their states, and donald trump overwhelmingly won the primary, so we hear them go state—by—state. it has been a jubilant mood on the floor in the last hour or so as the delegates weathered on the floor. a festival atmosphere. that is not unusual for atmosphere. that is not unusual for a convention, but certainly a convention like no other we have seenin convention like no other we have seen in the past, particularly
7:02 pm
because of what happened what it hours ago, that attempted assassination of donald trump will stop there's been a flurry of activity since then, the former president arriving here in milwaukee on sunday night, and he is expected to speak here, so delegates eager. they told us very eager to see him take the stage. our colleague sarah smith has been looking at the lead up smith has been looking at the lead up to today's events. another fist pump from donald trump, the ultimate survivor who now appears to be unstoppable as he sweeps into milwaukee. he seems to be a changed man who will bring an entirely different tone, a new message to his convention. he told a conservative newspaper he has completely rewritten his speech, saying it's a chance to bring the country together. i was given that chance. he wrote on his own social media site, the worst president in the history of our country... donald trump was only minutes
7:03 pm
into his speech to a campaign rally in pennsylvania when the shots came. if you want to really see something that said, take a look at what happened... if he'd not turned his head at that precise moment, he would almost certainly have been killed. the bullet that grazed his ear can be seen streaking past in this picture. it was a very near death experience. then he instinctively demonstrated his defiance to the crowd, creating an iconic image that will now define this election campaign. and you know, that's a little bit... he's got a gun! an investigation has been launched into the security lapse that allowed the gunman so close to the former president. the police are down there,
7:04 pm
running around on the ground. we're like, "hey, man, there's a guy on the roof with a rifle". and the police are like, "huh? "what"? you know, like like they didn't know what was going on. on social media, his supporters are claiming it was divine intervention that saved his life, calling it a miracle. he'll be greeted like a saint as well as a hero. a saint as well as a hero this week. i talked to president trump today. he was in great spirits. i mean, he was telling me an unbelievable story about hearing the bullet actually come at him and go to his ear. he's upbeat. he's excited about coming to milwaukee. he was going to get on the plane right before i talked to him. and so i think it's going to be an exciting week for all. my fellow americans... president biden gave a rare live address from the oval office last night, saying politicians can debate and disagree without it leading to physical attacks. we can't allow this violence to be normalised. you know, the political record in this country has gotten very heated. it's time to cool it down. we all have responsibility to do that. another major development for donald trump today
7:05 pm
is that the criminal case against him for storing classified documents at his residence in florida has been dramatically dropped by thejudge. she says the prosecuting lawyer was not properly appointed. so, in recent days, he has not only survived this assassination attempt, he's watched his opponent crumble on the debate stage, and won a major ruling in the supreme court. no wonder he and his allies believe they see the hand of god at work. earmark of the 48 hours there, as you can hear the singing of the national anthem behind me as delegates are standing up and gathered on the floor. we have spoken to many of them who told us this has been a moment of real shock, of anger even at the security lapse witness in pennsylvania, and many questions being asked about the shooter himself. we know his name is thomas matthew crookes, 20 years old, and our colleague emma vardy
7:06 pm
has looked into more about him as well. what was in the mind of this young man is still unknown. thomas crooks. he'd graduated from high school two years ago, said to be good at maths, and later worked as an assistant at a nursing home. now the eyes of the international media are on the house where thomas crooks lived. hi, handsome! kelly was one of a number of neighbours evacuated as police investigated a suspicious device at his home. we were overrun with law enforcement agents from literally everywhere and given no explanation. and your neighbour, what was he like? he would just avidly walk the neighbourhood, um, and always had on like beats style headphones and kind of seems like your average american dorky young man. atjust 20 years old, this would have been the first presidential election that thomas crooks was old enough to vote in, and there are still many unanswered questions about why he left this quiet neighbourhood, ended up coming inches away from killing donald trump.
7:07 pm
what we do know is that thomas crooks was a member of this gun club, which has condemned what it called the senseless violence. how typical is it for people to own guns in this area? yeah, hunting is something that's, you know, really typical in western pennsylvania. and i think belonging to a gun club, you know, having something like a rifle team like bethel park has, honing your craft and being a better shot is pretty typical throughout western pennsylvania for gun owners. when thomas crooks died on this roof, shot by the secret service, he was wearing a t—shirt, the merchandise of a popular youtuber who creates glamorised gun content for millions of subscribers. now the fbi is trawling through thomas crooks' life, his mobile phone and online activity, to try to understand the beliefs and motivations of the young man who has changed the course of this election. emma vardy, bbc news, bethel park, pennsylvania. all rights, those questions still
7:08 pm
swirling, we know president biden has called for an independent investigation to what happened. saying he would make those results probably —— public. the programme behind me getting in full swing, as we heard from sarah smith earlier, another massive piece of news that we heard today, another win for donald trump, is that a judge has dismissed the criminal case against him over mishandling classified documents. this is a florida—based judge. nominated by research, and she said leader of the prosecution was unlawfully appointed and lacked the authority to bring the case. this is the second high—profile ruling in trump favour this month, earlier this month he had gotten a supreme court ruling about immunity for persecution from official acts. we are expecting special counsel jack smith to disagree with this ruling. we jack smith to disagree with this rulina. ~ ~' ., , jack smith to disagree with this

7:17 pm
festival on the island. he then went to a house several miles away — the last time he was seen. the body has been found not far away near the village of masca. police say he may have suffered an accident or fall, as our correspondent danny savage reports. this is the area of tenerife where jay slater was last seen alive. mountainous terrain where he'd ended up at an airbnb after a night out. it's not farfrom here where human remains have now been found, along with his clothes and possessions. jay was 19 years old, and had been holidaying with friends when he vanished last month. a huge search was launched for him by the authorities on the island. drones were sent into the air to assist mountain rescue teams, but the official search was eventually called off when no trace of him was found. they now believe he could have fallen in the steep, inaccessible area where a body has
7:18 pm
now been discovered. these pictures have just been released of a deep deserted gorge where rescuers found who they believe to be jay. a statement from the civil guard on tenerife today says, "all indications indicate that it could be the young british man disappeared since lastjune 17th, in the absence of a full id". jay was from oswaldtwistle, here in lancashire, and ever since he went missing, people have been tying blue ribbons to lamp posts and fences in public places to show that people here were keeping him and his family in their thoughts. they were, of course, hoping for a much happier outcome than the one we now appear to be facing. i've known him. i grew up around here all my life, so everyone knows everyone around here like so, yeah, it's a shame it is. it's bad, you know? everyone wants him home. it's everyone wants an answer, don't they? i think it's hit the community hard around here because obviously he's
7:19 pm
a well, he's a local lad and he's well known. i feel sorry for the family for going through this and every effort. people going over, especially our local fire service, going over to find him, it must have hit... it's hit hard. like so many young people, jay headed to tenerife for the nightlife. his disappearance led to some disturbing conspiracy theories, but his body was found near where his mobile was last used, when he called friends to say he was walking the many miles back to his resort. danny savage, bbc news. for more developments, we have more on her bbc news website and app, more on the police search and the fact they found human route remains on the island of ten reef, so go to our website and app if you want to learn more, we will bring you more developments on the general as they arrive.

the england team have landed back on home soil following their defeat to spain in the euros final in berlin last night. gareth southgate's men reached their second consecutive euros final under his leadership but after failing to secure the victory, questions are now being raised about the manager's future, as natalie pirks now reports. it's a sight england fans have grown wearily accustomed to — their team arriving back on home soil without a trophy. england were when he took over... gareth southgate didn't give it a second glance last night. england the first team in european championships history to lose two consecutive finals. young royals had been watching, but urged to hold their heads high by the king, players downbeat faces said it all. meanwhile in spain. a team they'd had lukewarm feelings for at the start turned out to be red—hot. but as spaniards enjoyed the fiesta to end all fiestas, in berlin this morning, england fans were left reflecting
7:21 pm
on their manager's future. we're too critical of gareth as a nation. um, if he wants to go, i think he's earned that right, that he can choose when he wants to go. welcome back to a special 606... back home, though, the sentiment hasn't been quite as warm. the football was insipid. it was bland. he's tactically inept and his tactics is as if he's still got that bag on his head from the pizza hut advert. the fa will want the most successful england men's manager since 1966 to remain, but his contract runs out in december. last night, he was giving nothing away. now's not the time for me to speak about that. i need to talk to the right people and, uh, give myselfa bit of time. after the lowest moments as an england player... oh, no! ..southgate's mission as england manager was to unite the nation again.
7:22 pm
in russia, he and his waistcoat made fans dream, unexpectedly reaching the semis. by euro 2020, he'd led england to their first men's final since �*66, but penalty pain haunted them. in qatar, the quarterfinals. he's missed it. england the better side against france, but once again a penalty ended their dreams. and in germany late, late goals galvanised them. against the odds, they reached their first final on foreign soil, but their luck ran out against the standout team of the tournament. our relationship's kind of gone a little bit past football, - where i feel like i can open up - to him a lot, and i think that says, speaks volumes of the kind of man he is as well. - so whatever happens with, um, with gareth, i'll- always respect him. . if he stays, then i'll be even more i determined to win something for him, because he deserves it. around 24 million fans watched last night, but talk of bank holidays and parades ended in berlin. the party is over, for now. natalie pirks, bbc news.
