live now to our correspondent jenny kumah who is in tiverton. jenny, what's the latest? well, the local policing commander has described this as a traumatic incident for those involved and for the wider community. those living here will be shocked at what has happened. this is a prestigious school, 400 years old, fees of around £40,000 a yearfor boarders. at around one i am last night there was a huge emergency response when police were called to reports of serious incidents. that response involved three land ambulances, an air ambulance, involved three land ambulances, an airambulance, rapid response air ambulance, rapid response vehicle. airambulance, rapid response vehicle. we understand that three people were seriously injured, including two students. they are hospital receiving treatment. a 16—year—old boy has been arrested on

suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm with intent. he remains in custody. the police say they are not looking for anyone else in connection with this and i believe all parties are linked to the school. this morning the headmaster sent a letter to parents and in it he said that they are working with police and they are offering support to students. police and they are offering support to students-— a boy who died after being followed by police on his e—bike and then colliding with an ambulance has been named as 15—year—old saul cookson. traffic officers followed the teenager in salford on thursday afternoon until bollards blocked their vehicle's path. the boy rode on before his e—bike was in collision with the ambulance. the independent office for police conduct is investigating. a 30 degree heatwave forecast for england and wales has led to the year's first heat health alert. the met office warning covers six regions across the midlands, the east and south—east of england and is in place from 9.00am friday until monday morning.

parts of the country are predicted to be hotter than ibiza and tenerife over the weekend as a plume of warm air moves in from the south. there will likely be some impacts across the health and social care sector, with over—65s and those with pre—existing health conditions most at risk. professor isabel oliver from the uk health security agency spoke earlier about why people should pay attention to heat warnings. we can expect over the next few hours a rapid increase in temperatures, including high temperatures overnight. we know that in these kind of conditions we can expect an increase in hospital admissions and deaths. it is very important, therefore, that we all know what we can do to protect ourselves from these effects of high temperatures and that is why we work closely with the met office to issue heat health alerts.

the alerts are intended to inform the public, but also health and social care, so that we are all prepared and able to take action to to make sure that we remain safe while enjoying the nice weather. lgbt military veterans who were dismissed, interrogated or even imprisoned for their sexuality are calling for details of an independent report into their treatment to be released by the government immediately. until the year 2000, anyone gay, lesbian or bisexual was banned from serving in britain's armed forces. home affairs ministers from the european union have approved an overhaul of the bloc�*s migration policies. the changes include plans to distribute migrants and refugees more fairly across member sates. the proposals come as the number of migrants arriving in the mediterranean is up by 30% this year. our europe regional editor paul moss has more. on one hand, we're talking

about a very serious issue. this is a humanitarian issue for a start. as you say, the numbers crossing the mediterranean have gone up. it was, i think, 160,000 last year. 2,500 people drowned trying to cross the mediterranean. when they arrive in europe many of them are destitute. there are unaccompanied children. this means that they need support and that means that migration is a huge political issue in eu countries and indeed here in britain. i mean, political parties in europe have one power, standing on a policy that we will cut the number of migrants. that's, for example, what giorgia meloni stood on as a major policy. on the other hand, i think it's worth remembering the fact that most migrants are not in europe. most migrants, asylum seekers are in poor countries. for example, when afghanistan fell to the taliban again, there was much discussion about how many afghans should be allowed to come to europe. the total number in the end was a few hundred thousand across the entire continent. in pakistan alone, there

are 3.6 million afghans. so that does give you a sense of proportion. on the other hand, as i said, it's a major political issue across europe, and therefore there was a lot of pressure on these ministers to do a deal. daniel fleming from cleethorpes currently holds the world record for having the largest collection of bagpipes. and like any great record breaker, he's hoping to beat his own record by doubling his collection to 210! but first he has to get them officially verified, as crispin rolfe has been finding out my first bagpipes were bought by my late father. and it's actually this set here, the first of many. ten years ago, daniel fleming created a record for the most amount of bagpipes anyone could own of 105. now, this year, he hopes to double that, having increased his collection to 210.

bad news for the neighbours. i have got wonderful neighbours and it's wonderful that they applaud me at 3:00 in the morning when i'm finishing playing and i'm not sure what they're shouting. i think it's probably more. i hope it's more. and of course, there's danny's long suffering wife, jane. bye. thanks. he didn't have that many when i first met him. he does do lots of practising, and it's not too bad, but you can't really hear it if it's at the front of the house. i'm in the back of the house with the radio on. you don't know whether someone has 105 or indeed 106 sets, hence why i've still kept collecting. so i'm sincerely hope that someone hasn't got more than 210. i very much doubt it. and if they do, who'd want to be their neighbours? for now, though, danny's got to wait for the guinness book of records to verify his claim, but the chances are he's going to be a world

record breaker again. we can bring you some breaking news now. a labour mp has tweeted that he is under investigation over an allegation made against him. shadow foreign minister bambos charalambous mp said it was "right and proper that process is allowed to take place". loo roll, butter and ketchup are more expensive in the uk compared to its biggest european neighbours, research for the bbc suggests, but the uk is the cheapest for nappies and frozen pizza. the study compared the price of 23 items in france, germany, italy, spain and the netherlands. germany came out as cheapest and france the most expensive. the government has announced the windfall tax on oil and gas firms will be suspended if prices

fall to normal levels for a sustained period. halting the windfall tax would cut the overall tax rate on energy films from 75% to 40%. it was introduced last year to help fund a scheme to lower energy bills for households and businesses. recreational drugs, pesticides and medicines were found in sea water samples collected off the south coast of england. the researchers said they found more than 50 different chemical compounds. they include commonly prescribed medicines to treat diabetes and high blood pressure, as well as nicotine. traces of many chemicals were found inside the bodies of aquatic creatures like crabs and shrimp. now it's time for a look at the weather. hello there. the weather this weekend you'll either love or loathe. big changes, really, compared to what we've seen over the last few days. we're going to see temperatures rise and humidity rise right across the country by day and by night.

with that, though, will come the chance of maybe a little bit of welcome rain, but for some a bit too click much with some severe thunderstorms possible. bit of welcome rain, but for some a bit too much with some severe thunderstorms possible. thunderstorms today mainly limited to this cloud which has been gathering towards the south—west, channel islands, sout—hwest england. away from that, a day of blue skies for the vast majority. the low cloud we saw earlier willjust linger around some eastern coasts of northern england and eastern scotland, so temperatures here again in the mid—teens at the highest. away from that, a warm afternoon, especially so towards the south. temperatures here already in hampshire up to around 27 degrees later. that could set off a few isolated showers, maybe thunderstorms here drifting towards wales overnight. still continue with some in the south—west. the cloud returns across the same sort of area as it did last night and it will still be a bit on the cool side for some of you, but those humidity levels already creeping up in the south. temperatures not dropping much lower than around 13 or 14 degrees. into tomorrow the low cloud we've got to begin with will fade away quite quickly. some will linger around coasts of eastern scotland. later we should see some isolated, but pretty intense thunderstorms break out across the midlands, southern england and wales. many, though, will stay dry and a much warmer

day, if not hot day. london, up towards the north—west of england, 28 to 30 celsius possible. 26 or 27 in western scotland. with humidity levels rising, temperatures don't drop away quickly by evening either. compared to what we've seen of late, this is quite a warm evening expected on saturday. temperatures staying above 20 degrees for some. overnight saturday into sunday, we'll see some storms around the west pushing into scotland and northern ireland. still there first thing. across western areas, always a bit more cloud on sunday with a few more showers and thunderstorms breaking out. pretty intense where you see them with hail mixed in too. compared to recently, eastern areas probably sunniest. all will see temperatures drop a little bit, but still another humid day for the vast majority. actually, around some eastern coasts, it could feel a touch warmer. then as we go through into the start of next week, this area of high pressure, which before was out in the west, moved to scandinavia, starts to nudge its way back towards the north of us once again. there will be more showers and thunderstorms here and there,

but most of you will stay dry, sunny and pretty warm, as well. that's how it's looking. take care. live from london, this is bbc news. more evidence is emerging
