by the injured and those affected by the incident. he mentioned mercy hospital where we understand the suspect was taken to. is that fairly close to the synagogue? it is close, probably within a mile or a mile and a half away, right next to the university that i attend, i have taken friends there for, it is a wonderful hospital. it is a trauma centre, they have a great reading in everything. wonderful medical care, and all the hospitals in the area are wonderful and provide people with the highest level of care. very quickly, the last message from lease was? the last thing i heard was, and the press conference that theyjust gave was that people are able to leave their houses and move around, but to stay out of that general area to not disturb the investigation,

but it is not an actively threatening situation to the community any more. thank you very much and do take care. the picture coming lactose in pittsburgh around the area of the shooting, —— through. as you can see, a lot of the press have gathered, a huge jewish community within squirrel hill, a high residential population. and to hear what the weather is doing, this investigation has not been class as a hate crime —— now been class as a hate crime —— now been classed as a hate crime. it is an anti—semitic riot and one figure does to lead you with, and 2017, anti—semitic incidents in the us

rose by 57%. and i was according to a study by the anti—defamation league. 0bviously, a study by the anti—defamation league. obviously, this is going to become a feature. you're watching bbc news, stay with us to the latest developments taking place on the streets of squirrel hill in pittsburgh, pennsylvania. in the meantime, catching up with the weather. it has been a day of mixed precipitation, but particularly across the east as snow and a real rush running down from east yorkshire into the middle of the southwest, these would tend to linger across the southeast corner overnight tonight, not quite as cold, but we will see some clear skies across but we will have a touch of, on sunday, it will likely

be west away from that nagging northeastern wind is going to continue to keep some showers off the north sea coast, some of it being across the saudis. not a one day with temperatures this time of year, we are looking at eight to 11 degrees but something a little bit milder assuming develops through the week. hello this is bbc news with lu kwesa burak. the headlines. a gunman opens fire in a synagogue in the us city of pittsburgh, it's reported there are multiple casualties, four police officers are among those injured. police say the shooter, who was inside the synagogue, is in custody. he entered the building during a saturday morning service. it isa it is a very horrific crime scene. it is a very horrific crime scene.

it is a very horrific crime scene. it is one of the worst that i have seen. president trump says he's watching developments, telling reporters if there had been protection inside, the results may have been different. nobody knows exactly what took place yet, it's too soon. but this is a case where — if they had an armed guard inside, they might have been able to stop him immediately. now on bbc news it's time for sportsday. hello and welcome to sportsday. the headlines this evening. liverpool on top — a win against cardiff and they're top of the premier league — at least until city play on monday. a piece of magic from a man making his debut gives england's rugby league players the advantage in the tri series with new zealand. and lewis hamilton has his work cut out if he wants pole position at the mexico grand prix where he's

primed to take the title — qualifying is half an hour away. also coming up in the programme. the longest game in world series history. the la dodgers pull it back to 2—1 against the boston red sox after the pair slug it out for over seven hours. everybody is going home now to try to rest for a couple of hours and back to play. and try to win the second game and tie the series. and rain, rain, stay away — roy shines as england look to close out the only t20 of the sri lanka tour. hello and welcome to sportsday. before we get to all the day's action lets start with the news

that the former tottenham and england midfielder and england manager glenn hoddle has been taken to hospital after being seriously ill hoddle was broadcasting on bt sport when he collapsed — today is his 61st birthday. the channel cancelled their saturday afternoon score update programme. hoddle is considered one of spurs' greatest players and made 377 appearances for the club. winning the fa cup twice in the early 1980's. he won 53 caps for england and later turned to management, taking england to the world cup finals in 1998. there's been a lot of support for him on social media. hoddle's former england team—mate gary lineker tweeted. .. from spurs — his former club... and from the england camp...

we will have the latest on glenn hoddle's condition with that comes let us go tojohn and get the latest on today's premier league results. a busy day. it has been. we are talking about mo salah again. we talked about him a lot last season and we do so again today. mo salah — 51 goals in 66 games for liverpool now, what a record that is. he was on the scoresheet again as liverpool beat cardiff 4—1 to move clear at the top of the table. answering those who were questioning whether he could replicate the form of last season in this campaign. he now has four goals in three matches. sadio mane scored twice, xerdan shaqiri with the other. cardiff grabbed one, nothing more than a consolation. to round off a good week for liverpool who also won in the champions league. here'sjurgen klopp. yes, conceding goals are nice. but

todayit yes, conceding goals are nice. but today it was kind of the right game because it will goes up, us and the opponent, gave us space so that we could finish the game off. so i am fine. and you've got a clean week finally on top of the league for 24 hours at least? laughter my hours at least? laughter my whole life i've always wanted to be top of league for 24 hours. so is not too decisive, but 26 points are really good. fans are being fantastic. they know we are up fans are being fantastic. they know we are up against it. we are limited. we only had seven subs today. so we are a bit short on numbers, buti today. so we are a bit short on numbers, but i can not tip my hat off more to the labs. the lads have given me everything today. another day we might have got a decent result. cardiff are struggling as are fulham who were heavily beaten at home by bournemouth striker calum wilson with two in a 3—0 win. fulham in the bottom three — owner shahid khan in the stands — he'd said this week manager slavisa jokanovic‘s job is safe despite seeing little return from the £100 million that was invested in the squad this summer.

is that still case after this defeat? at the moment is premier league is ha rd at the moment is premier league is hard for us. it is a different case, different thread. in the end, that means the energy, we need to be more aggressive and midfield area. and today and during the game. we paid inexpensive price. still keep going and working hard. for us to restrict them in the way that we did offensively we were very good. i thought it was a much better away performance than the watford game, which we did will be well in recently. so a lot of positives to take. huddersfield are bottom tonight beaten 3—0 by watford. one of the goals of the day came from roberto pereya, a lovely dribble through the entire huddersfield defence. well worth watching a match of the

day to night. huddersfield replacing newcastle at the bottom. defensively today, this was not the performance which we wanted to have. we not often enough look solid, stable, compact. real problems especially in the transition. but in the open play as well, there we were not aggressive enough and we didn't shuffle over and make it tight enough for them and make it uncomfortable enough for them, so they looked very strong. we have played a lot of games better than today. and we have scored three goals. we have laid maybe on counterattack, and they had different chances in the first half to score. they were forced to make maybe two, three good saves. and

after that we dominated. we were able to get with ourselves. but i think today we have many things to improve. that is another big win for watford. let's ta ke that is another big win for watford. let's take a look at the rest of the day's result. brighton are beating wolves 1—0 down. qing palestinian, behind against west ham united. 1—0 up behind against west ham united. 1—0 up at the moment. southampton and newcastle united, both back in form at the moment. a rather port 0—0 draw in that one. let's look at the top of the table. it is liverpool who are out in front at the moment. for the time being at least manchester city play talk to them on monday night. chelsea and arsenal are also in action tomorrow. they will be looking to try and get wins if they can. at the bottom of the table, confirmation that it is newcastle who are no longer on the bottom. replaced by huddersfield town. you wonder if his job

bottom. replaced by huddersfield town. you wonder if hisjob is bottom. replaced by huddersfield town. you wonder if his job is safe to my currently isjokanovic is looking like he can be in trouble with fulham. but this is how it stands tonight. in the champions. sheffield united are taught this evening. a hattrick from billy sharp helped them beat wigan 4—2. that came after an absolulte howler of an own goal meant middlesbrough and derby drew 1—1 — both goals were own goals, but this was the worst. jayden bogle totally misjudging the pass to his keeper. boro are down to second, derby in 6th. just two matches in the scottish premiership today kilmarnock leapfrogged celtic into second — they drew one all with hamilton — one other result — stjohnstone beat st mirren 2—0. we will keep you updated with the

goings—on at the king power stadium. where leicestershire are currently 1-0 where leicestershire are currently 1—0 down to west ham. west ham looked like they are down to ten men, so looked like they are down to ten men, so we looked like they are down to ten men, so we will keep you updated on that. to rugby league where england got their three match series off to a winning start against new zealand — but it was close, just two points in it. 18—16 the final score, with a dream debut for 0liver gildart, who scored the match—winning try. joe lynskey reports. few traditions in world sport catch the eye like the haka. it is new zealand's spectacle made to intimidate, but a year on from losing in the world cup final, england have players out to make their own impression. that catch from tommy came two minutes into this first started. an intervention to set up sam tomkins for the finishing touch. but new zealand's response would be typically swift. this is a nation that plays rugby at high speed. like a hot knife through

english butter. that score gave the kiwis a six—point lead. but england are and have time harit cesar a referee's decision. connor here had not grounded the ball for the score. but a penalty try was given for new zealand's late tackle. it was a decision time to change the game. i'm not having any of it, it is a try. let's go. if that first half was free—flowing the second was marginal. new zealand kicked their way back in front, but to settle this match england found something far more remarkable. he sizes up his man! what a try! what a debut try that is! oliver called its a real, just being in the england squad. he was in as a late replacement. this on his debut, was the footwork he won't forget. it was the flash of youthful ambition that capped england's hiking foundations and gives them the advantage in a test series now set up to be one of the greats. joe lynskey, bbc news. unbelievable. seen a bit of spurs

and moa kley unbelievable. seen a bit of spurs and moakley got over. talk me through it. doesn't happen as fast as we see it or is it almost in slow motion for you? no, it happens really quick. i was just splinting as fast as i can. trying my best to beat him. and i did in the end. good to see someone's dreams coming true on the pitch. wales began the defence of their european championship title against france in carcasonne the score currently at 42—18 to france — this try from morgan escare was their seventh of the match. wales also face ireland and scotland in the series next month. they won this tournament three years ago — the winner and runner—up will qualify automatically for the 2021 world cup. also coming up in the programme. sarries youngsters impress — seizing their chance to shine away from the premiership. but first formula 1.

if lewis hamilton wants to claim his fifth f1 world title with a win in mexico he's going to have his work cut out. that's because red bull's max verstappen completed a clean sweep in practice, by topping the timesheets in the final session. hamilton was second quickest, but more than a quarter of a second off the dutchman. his championship rival sebastian vettel was third. qualifying gets underway at 7:00. and we will bring you the progress of that in sports day at 7:30pm. england'sjustin rose had a mixed third round at the world golf championships event in shanghai. england are well placed to take victory in the only t20 intenational with sri lanka in colombo. jason roy was the key figure for england with the bat. roy kept the scoreboard ticking over — he top scored with 69 and cleared the boundary six times as england reached 187—8 from their 20 overs.

roy had a little bit of luck — he was dropped four times. sri lanka are struggling in reply —joe denly, back in the team after an eight year absence, struck in the first over. a short while ago sri lanka were 128 for eight. time for a quick look at the rest of the sports stories making the headlines this evening. england'sjustin rose had a mixed third round at the world golf championships event in shanghai. he had the lead at one stage but this double—bogey at the 17th and another dropped shot at the last saw him slip to two under for the round. he's three shots off the overall leader tony finau. england'sjodi ewart shadoff is two shots off the lead heading into the final round of the lpga taiwan championship. shadoff, the first—round leader, lost ground with a 73, as american nelly korda and taiwan's wei—ling hsu moved to the top of the leaderboard. england's netballers have been struggling. they're playing in the fast 5's. basically five a side netball. in shorter games. england are the defending champions but they lost all three of their games this morning.

to new zealand, malawi and south africa. they'll be hoping to do better tomorrow when they play australia and jamaica. in rugby union's premiership rugby cup, saracens have beaten leicester 29—21, both teams missing star players, with the autumn internationals looming. it was a chance then for some young talent to make their mark, and for sarries that's what they did. as james burford can tell us. the opening weekend at the inaugural premiership rugby cup and with most of the big guns away on international duty, this is an opportunity for the youngsters to sta ke opportunity for the youngsters to stake their claim. with halloween just around the corner, there are few scarier sight in rugby than the rolling maul. and he's been hunting teams for years. but saracens were just getting started. district was eight treat for the saracens fans. perhaps the performance of the day belonged to joel,

perhaps the performance of the day belonged tojoel, making his first start in the senior saracens team. 0ne shudders at the thought he is only 19. the saracens star factory in full working order. just as the threatened to boil over, leicester sparked into life and started to work their magic. david touching down before this late score from harry welsh. too little too late though, their fate sealed and saracens start their cup with a win. james burford, bbc news. in the other cup games, there were wins for gloucester, harlequins and northampton. meanwhile... in the pro 14... leinster thrashed benetton 31—3 away in italy. glasgow are beating munster away in ireland. and cardiff blues are behind away at the cheetahs. in gymnastics. four—time olympic champion simone biles has made her return to competition after an 18 month break — and she looks in excellent form.

she's looking to add to her ten world golds, and tops the standings in qualification for tomorrow's finals at the world championships in doha. and this, 24 hours after a trip to hospital for treatment for kidney stones. it's being cryptic crazy. i was an er last night and came back early in the morning like that one. found out i had the morning like that one. found out ihada the morning like that one. found out i had a kidney stone so we're going from there. but the pain is pretty 0k right now. so that is good. from there. but the pain is pretty ok right now. so that is good. so we can expect to see you out there going for team usa? you don't want to let the team now, do you? know, of course not. team is number one tyrie. i thought she was super puma before but a performance like that after having gone to hospital is unbelievable. super league triathlon is in malta this weekend, but some of britain's best are missing the action. double olympic champion alistair brownlee is one of six britons unable to take part. his brotherjonny was in the eliminator race, which sees the slowest athletes drop out after each stage. the race was won by south africa's richard murray, with brownlee finishing fourth. america's katie zaferes won all three stage races to take

victory in the women's eliminator. great britain'sjodie stimpson was fifth. there are super league events in mallorca in a week's time and singapore in february, before the final in australia in march. speaking of finals. sloane stephens has reached the final of the wta finals in singapore, after beating karolina pliskova in the semi—finals. it was an incredible comeback from the world number six — she lost eight games in a row at the start. she eventually came through to win love—6, 6—4, 6—1. and she goes through to the final... ...where she'll face elina svitolina tomorrow. she became the first ukrainian woman to reach the finals, after beating kiki bertens over three sets. the match lasted two hours and 38 minutes — and was the longest of the tournament so far. speaking of long and rather epic

contests. the los angeles dodgers have clawed their way back into the world series with an epic 3—2 victory over the boston red sox in game three in la. the sides played for a staggering seven hours and 20 minutes in the longest world series game ever. the red sox lead the series 2—1. would you stay to be end? i probably wouldn't. 0ur reporter chris mitchell is out in la for us. let me put this amazing marathon game, this hollywood epic into some sort of contact for you. a regular game of baseball takes about three and a half hours to finish. this one ata and a half hours to finish. this one at a staggering seven hours and 20 minutes. the players were tired, the fa ns were minutes. the players were tired, the fans were tired, everybody was tired at the end. in fact win hit the winning home run, there was a huge cheer. 0f winning home run, there was a huge cheer. of course there was from the home fans. but then there was a rush for the exit doors. because of course many of them had missed their dinner reservations and downtown la. it would have to get back from the baby—sitters it would have to get back from the ba by—sitters perhaps. it would have to get back from the baby—sitters perhaps. and what about, pt then perhaps, the poor

boston red sox fans who had watched on the east coast throughout the night. they would have gone to bed much before 5am. but the people we really have to think about here are the players. what do they do now after a marathon game? how are they going to prepare for ben four? we play an amazing and today. one of the longest games i ever played in my life. 18 innings on a seven hours, this is amazing. i'm so happy. now knee we need to be back at the stadium and a couple of hours. everybody is going home now for try to rest for a couple of hours and back to play. and try to win the second game and tie the series. so where does this leave the series? well, it has made a very exciting of course. we're not going to get the coins would that many people were talking about. the dodgers are back in it. but you have to say i'm in the red sox are still the favourites to take it overall.

if you look back though, in the history of world series, you will see that there is one team that has done very well when it has been 2—0 down before. and that is the los angeles dodgers. so they have given themselves a chance, 2—1 it is, game four, back here very shortly. absolutely and we know that history does have a weird way of repeating itself. that was chris mitchell reporting for us their stateside. as the players get bigger and the challenges get even more bone crunching in full contact rugby, it's perhaps no wonder, that more, are turning to the tag version of the sport. the 88—strong british team took off for australia for the tag world cup, and our reporter mike bushell went to train with them. if you want to play more rugby, but don't get flattened... well, there is an alternative. a version of the game that has boomed over the last

decade. you see, the worst that can happen in this game is you get your tax taking off your shorts. you get six phases, six tackles before you can seed possession. attack, that is the tackle. i've never been able to ta ke the tackle. i've never been able to take it, get you down and a normal game of ruby. you can get the luxuries of rugby with the social components that rugby brings to it as well as a very good work—out. and play the game that you love, without having to do the work done and go to work with a black guy or that ultimate interview. —— with a black eye. men and women, makes it nice, and all engaging sport. when i left school i went to play for a men's by school i went to play for a men's rugby club and you have got people who are six foot five and then, you know, me who is five foot nothing. it is quite daunting. there is a bit of co nta ct it is quite daunting. there is a bit of contact in tackle, it is fairly

minimal. it suits people like me who are a bit more on the edge outside, let's put it that way. this form of tag rugby was invented by an australian rugby league team in 1992 who wanted to keep players theatre in the off—season. and it is a of focus on the shorts. tucker shirt and, please. that is the rules. but my shirt and? come on. but don't be loaded into thinking the lack of typos makes it easy. it's virtually nonstop play for 20 minutes and a half. —— nonstop play for 20 minutes and a half. -- 20 nonstop play for 20 minutes and a half. —— 20 minutes a half. my not happy tackles of rugby union rugby league, but it is so fast and so serious. after so the ball doesn't go to ground, there is no line to slow things down. it is consistently 90, 90, slow things down. it is consistently go, go, go. we don't know what happening half the time, but it gives us a chance to play and make tags and catch balls and score tries. there's a lot of different schools that you can bring into it.

the kicking and the shoulder height. really good. only arriving in the uk just nine years ago, more than 25 —— 20,000 players on avant denly matches every week. and the pick—up layers are added to the world cup in australia this weekend to play with men's, women's and mixed great britain teams. i come from a netball background so quote unquote girls can only throw and i can't. jumped ina can only throw and i can't. jumped in a tournament team won and went from there. cannot believe it, it has gone from social in 2012 and up to this in 2018. maybe the gb players were saving themselves. maybe they were just bamboozled by mike wiggling hips. eventually i tied my way through to put the ball down and score a point with my shorts on such. —— untouched. shortly after that, i had never been so glad to hear a final whistle. that is it. i've never done anything as exhausting, the running, the speed, the mental taxing, the

positioning and skill. just having a good set. the australian world cup. well done. studio: it does look pretty exhausting. leicester is still trailing at home. and england adjusted to balls away from victory and the only t20 of the torture live. remember they have already won the one—day series. that is awesome sport safer now. ——that‘s all from sportsday. we'll have more at 7.30. we will see you then. goodbye. good evening. it is certainly a day to run around and try and keep warm. a bitterly cold day. ridiculously when you compare it to where we were a week ago. you can see a rash of showers, some in the four north east of scotland. snow to higher ground. these across the midlands. lincolnshire fairly relentless, it made for a cold day today. they will

continue overnight particularly in the southeast corner, but with the northeast when there is always a risk of a few more showers running in off the north sea coast. further west a touch of light frost. it is the west that was the best of sunshine for sunday. that northeasterly wind is still dragging in. the threat of some showers along the east coast. hopefully the cluster of showers in the southeast would he say little into the afternoon. it is not very warm out there. highest values of 8—11d. that is it. enjoy your saturday night. i will be back. this is bbc news — broadcasting to viewers in the uk and around the world — i'm martine croxall. the headlines. a gunman opens fire in a synagogue in the us city of pittsburgh, it's reported there are multiple casualties. police say the shooter, who was inside the synagogue, is now in custody. he entered the building during a saturday morning service. it isa

it is a very horrific crime scene. 0ne it is a very horrific crime scene. one of the worst that i have seen. president trump says he's watching developments, telling reporters if there had been protection inside, the results may have been different. nobody knows what exactly took place. but if they had
