The other car, carrying Ms Kittleson, fled the scene. Following the incident, Iraq's ministry said one suspect had been arrested and efforts were now underway to locate Ms Kittleson and the kidnappers.

The vessel, detected by authorities in the early hours of Wednesday, had ignored repeated warnings to stop, according to the Turkish coastguard. Officials said in a statement that the boat, which had attempted to flee at speed, capsized and sank in rough seas. A coastguard helicopter from Izmir was sent to the area along with three boats, and 20 migrants were rescued from the Aegean Sea, according to officials. The statement did not ​say where the boat had ​departed from, or its destination, and the nationalities of those who were on board are not yet known. Search and rescue operations are continuing.

Sandhu Ponnachan was charged with six counts of causing grievous bodily harm with intent, one count of attempted GBH and one of possessing a bladed weapon. The 36-year-old was remanded in custody by magistrates after making his first court appearance on Wednesday. Seven people were injured, some seriously, after a black Suzuki Swift mounted the pavement at around 9.30pm on Saturday, outside the Bishop Blaise pub in Friar Gate. Counter-terrorism officers joined the investigation, but police said previously the support of these officers does not mean the incident is being treated as terrorism. Ponnachan, of Alvaston, Derbyshire, appeared at Southern Derbyshire Magistrates' Court after being charged the previous day. Wearing glasses and dressed in a plain grey T-shirt, grey jogging bottom and light blue croc-type footwear, he appeared in the dock and spoke only to confirm his personal details, including his address. There was no application for bail during the hearing, which lasted about five minutes. District Judge Jonathan Taaffe told Ponnachan: "You face a number of charges from an incident on 28 March. "It's said that upon that date you drove dangerously and that you committed acts that have unlawfully and maliciously caused grievous bodily harm to a number of people. "Given the nature of the charges, they can only be dealt with at the crown court."

Derbyshire Police described the injuries as not life-threatening and later said four patients have since been discharged from hospital. The victims were four men and three women aged between 36 and 52. Ponnachan is next due to appear at Derby Crown Court on April 29.

The 16-year-old boy, who is black, was stopped in Tottenham, north London, on 26 April last year due to concerns about his "manner of riding and general behaviour", according to watchdog the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC). Officers "used force" to remove him from the bike, and the boy was not provided with immediate first aid, despite injuring his knee, the IPOC said. He was searched, but nothing was found, so officers said he could go after taking the battery from his electric bike. However, the officers returned a short time later and arrested him on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence, threats to kill and dangerous driving. The boy was turned away from police custody after a medical examination and sent to hospital, where it was found that he had a fractured knee. Three Metropolitan Police constables are under criminal investigation: one for potential offences of assault occasioning grievous bodily harm or actual bodily harm, and the other two for intentionally encouraging or assisting an offence. The three are also being investigated for potential gross misconduct, according to the IOPC. A further three police constables are being investigated for potential misconduct after allegedly failing to challenge the conduct of the other officers and how they treated the boy. Read more from Sky News:Ryanair warns of jet fuel supply disruption in MayWarning of very strong winds issued for parts of UK Amanda Rowe, of the IOPC, said: "The use of stop and search is an important policing tool - however, it must be used proportionately. "This is a serious case where a child has been injured as a result of force being used, and we are investigating the officers' actions in this case and their treatment of the child, who was not provided with immediate first aid. "We have been in contact with the boy's family, and obtained further evidence to assist our investigation." The IOPC has viewed officers' body-worn video as part of their investigation.

Police were called to Clapham, south London, following reports of anti-social behaviour involving large groups of young people, who gathered after a series of online posts about meeting in the area. Footage showed people spilling into the road, blocking cars and buses, while others congregated on the pavement outside a McDonald's. Pictures captured police vehicles reaching the scene as traffic came to a stop due to the numbers of pedestrians in the street. In other clips, groups of people could be seen running down the road as officers in marked and unmarked cars arrived. The online 'link-up' trend sees groups posting on social media, calling for as many people as possible to gather in a specific location. It is not clear how many people were involved in Tuesday evening's unrest. Scotland Yard confirmed two teenage girls were arrested on suspicion of assaulting an emergency worker. Police also imposed a "dispersal order", meaning anyone congregating in the area must leave or face arrest. Similar incidents in Clapham High Street were also reported at the weekend in which there were three other teenage girls arrested. The Metropolitan Police said officers would "remain in the area" to offer support to any worried members of the public.

"Officers are on the scene, and a dispersal order has been put in place, meaning anyone congregating must leave the area. "At this time two teenage girls have been arrested on suspicion of assaulting an emergency worker. "They have been taken to custody. "Officers will remain in the area to offer support and respond to any concerns from local residents and businesses."

Gas prices on the continent have risen by more than 70% since the conflict started on 28 February. Iran effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz to shipping in response to US-Israeli attacks, and this has largely stopped the flow of oil and gas from the Middle East. Iran war latest: Trump to address US with 'important' update And US President Donald Trump suggested on Tuesday that the war could soon end - with the situation in the strait still unresolved. The EU's supplies of crude oil and natural gas have not been hit directly by the closure, as Europe imports most of those energy sources from suppliers outside of the Middle East. However, the bloc is concerned about Europe's supply of refined petroleum products, such as jet fuel and diesel. The last kerosene shipments that passed through the Strait of Hormuz before its closure are due to arrive in Europe around 10 April, according to Benedict George, head of European products at Argus Media. "There's no realistic risk of actually running out" of jet fuel, George said, though he added that, "stocks could fall to a level where you have localised shortages". Ryanair group CEO Micheal O'Leary has warned of jet fuel supply disruption in May in an interview with Sky News. Speaking after a virtual meeting of EU countries' energy ministers to discuss their response, Energy Commissioner Dan Jorgensen suggested that measures brought in in 2022 after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine could be revived. "We don't know how long this crisis will last. And since we don't know how deep it will be, we are also preparing different opportunities and possibilities that look more like the ones we used under the crisis in 2022," he said. The EU introduced a number of measures in 2022, including a cap on gas prices, a tax energy companies' profits and targets to curb demand. Jorgensen also warned that he does not see a quick resolution to the energy crisis, even if the conflict ends soon. He added: "What I find extremely important is to state as clearly as I can, that even if that peace is here tomorrow, still we will not go back to normal in a foreseeable future." Jorgensen is encouraging EU member states to consider the International Energy Agency's 10-point plan, which includes home working and reduced speeds limits along with more use of public transport and increased car sharing.

Jorgensen said the block should never "repeat the mistakes of the past allowing [Vladimir] Putin to weaponise energy against us and blackmail member states". He added that "it would be totally unacceptable" for the EU to continue buying energy that would "indirectly help finance the terrible war that Putin is conducting in Ukraine".
