tomlinson on the upper half of his leg and thigh with my baton.m the side we see the officer's baton going in. he says, i did not get any immediate reaction from mr. tomlinson. i then pushed him in the top part of his right shoulder. he said he was amazed at what he described as the push that caused tomlinson to fall. he said his actions were meant as an encouragement to move. the officer was asked, was he a threat to you? he replied, not to me, no. to anyone else, he said, i do not believe so. so the jury have now heard firsthand from the key witness about events at this spot two years ago. simon harwood told them if it's the case i have in any way caused his death, then i am very sorry. tomlinson's family said rather than wanting to help them, the officer only wanted to help himself. he accused him of exaggerating and telling untruths. simon will be back in the witness box tomorrow. june kelly, bbc news, central london. >>> you're watching bbc news. good to have you with us. a reminder of the headline this is hour, talks continue in ivory coast
