Weve been seeing these individuals like this young, white males armed, showing up at protests around the country in minneapolis, louisville, connecticut. Kyle is from about 20 25 miles away. We do know from his facebook and tiktok that he is a police want to be. He was a police cadette, as you mentioned. He also has strong feelings of support for the police. Back the badge, back the blue on his pages. Theres one line that says trump 2020 on his Facebook Page and tiktok videos, anderson. One showing him shooting a gun. One i think we can show you having him assembling his gun or what appears to be him assembling his gun. And then we have video of Kyle Rittenhaus at a trump rally in january, in which he is briefly seen there. Donald trump is not seen in that video. That is what we know about him at this time. Again, he seems to be one of those armed individuals who is compelled to go to these protest sites and act like a police officer. And cnns facebook did not shut down one of the page
In england came underfire this week over longer waits for test results. In an effort to track of the spread of the virus, the government has rolled out a new scheme. After a successful trial, 90 waste Water Treatment sites in england, wales and scotland are to Start Testing sewage for traces of the virus to try to detect local outbreaks before they spread. Heres our Health Editor hugh pym. Its a new approach to tracking down coronavirus monitoring sewage in local communities. This is an Early Warning system, as fragments of genetic material from the virus can be detected in waste water. Scientists say its real value is in areas where there might be people who are infected but showing no symptoms. The beauty of this technique is that we can detect people who are in that situation and dont know theyve got the virus but they are still shedding it, and we can still find it in the waste water and we can find it in advance of there being any positive tests in a catchment. Samples from sewage
The 50th anniversary of his clothing label. From opening his first small shop in nottingham in 1970 to trading in 70 countries hes a stalwart of the fashion scene. But like the rest of the industry his business has been hit hard by the pandemic. He met our arts editor Will Gompertz at a paul smith store that was closed at the time and talked about the challenges ahead. You can wear it, but theres always something, a little secret. I love that. Were sitting in the size of the original shop, which was three metres by three metres, only open fridays and saturdays, and the idea was just to earn a living. There was almost no fashion, really, in nottingham. Slowly, people from leicester and sheffield and derby, and then eventually even further afield. Oh, there little shop thats got really interesting things, you know. From a tiny backroom in nottingham to the fashion catwalks of the world, paul smith turned his small enterprise into a global brand. Its been profitable for every one of its 5
Ecologists have criticised plans to move ancient woodland habitat in the warwickshire countryside to make way for hs2 describing the idea as fundamentally flawed. Developers of the high speed line want to relocate the woodland, as our environment and Rural Affairs correspondent Claire Marshal explains. This tree is from part of an ancient woodland near Leamington Spa thats being cut down because its in the way of h52. It belongs to penny. She takes us through a bit of south Cubbington Wood that isnt being affected by the high speed line. She says this is what it looked like in the spring. This is what its like now. Its a bit of a kick in the stomach. Its a bit. Alarming, yeah. Its alarming. But, you know, just got to keep calm and go along with it. Ancient woodlands are at least 400 years old. Theyre rich in life, but there are only fragments left about 2 of land in the uk. Hs2 said it would translocate ones in the way of the line, which essentially means moving the habitat. So the tra
Started trials of a new treatment for coronavirus. The antiviral drug is one of several potential treatments aimed at curbing infection in the early stages and reducing the risk of people developing serious illness. Our medical editor, fergus walsh, went to meet some of the first volunteers wholl receive the experimental medication. The preparations are meticulous. Safety para mou nt. Mention clinical trials, and many still remember when six volunteers in london fell dangerously ill within minutes of receiving an experimental drug. That was 1a years ago. Now, doctors must wait 2a hours after the first person is dosed. After northwick park, it was recognised that we must have a pause between dosing our first individual and dosing the rest of a cohort, so 2a hours is a reasonable time period for most medicines. It gives that time for the emergence of any unusual side effects. So, we have the go ahead. Yesterdays volunteer is fine, so that means catherine, a nurse, can be given the trial
