going to get to Gavin Gray, a UK -Europe correspondent.
0:02
Gavin, good morning. Good
0:04
morning, Ryan. Now, we will come back
0:06
to Liverpool in a second, but you've
0:08
got news of a counter -terrorism operation by
0:10
police. What's happening here? Yeah,
0:14
it's in Yorkshire in
0:16
the northeast of England and it
0:18
is said that three people have
0:20
been taken to hospital having been
0:22
found injured in Leeds in the
0:24
Headingley area famous of course for
0:26
its cricket and being quite a
0:28
sort of well -to -do area of
0:30
the city of Leeds and of
0:32
those three who have been taken
0:34
to hospital one is the suspected
0:36
attacker and It is said that
0:38
one of them has been seriously
0:40
injured and the attack was with
0:42
a cross But the reason it
0:44
appears that counter -terrorism police are
0:46
investigating this incident is that
0:48
alongside the crossbow, they also found
0:51
a firearm recovered at the
0:53
scene. And the 38 -year -old suspect,
0:55
it said, has suffered a
0:57
self -inflicted injury. Now, as
0:59
I said, we have few details about
1:01
the two victims. One is now
1:03
thought to be out of hospital. The
1:05
other is still in hospital. And
1:07
this happened along something very, very popular
1:09
called the Ottley Run pub crawl
1:12
room. It's often very, very popular with
1:14
students who go on a run, stopping
1:16
off at a number of different
1:18
pubs, often about half a dozen different
1:20
pubs on the way, and often
1:22
for sponsorship. So obviously the police investigate
1:24
in the motive and indeed questioning
1:26
the suspected attacker. Gavin, Marks and Spencer,
1:28
they had that cyber attack last
1:30
weekend, but they're still struggling to sort
1:32
of get to grips with it. Yeah,
1:35
very much so Ryan. So Mark
1:37
Spenser, the absolute sort of the
1:39
stalwart of the high street in
1:42
the UK selling food and clothing.
1:44
It shares fell dramatically by 5%.
1:46
They have picked up a little
1:48
bit after it was announced they'd
1:50
been subjected to a cyber incident
1:52
and it really is struggling a
1:54
week on to get back to
1:56
normal. Indeed, it is now saying
1:58
that it has had to cancel its
2:00
click and collect with struggling as
2:02
well with people using contactless payments
2:04
as well as those paying with
2:06
gift cards that things have pretty
2:09
much got back a lot of
2:11
the way, but I'm afraid since
2:13
it's suspended online ordering, Marks and
2:15
Spencer's has been responding to social
2:17
media posts advising customers that these
2:19
problems still persist. The
2:21
share market has gone down 5 %
2:23
following this, as I said, but they
2:25
have picked up a bit. No news
2:27
on what that cyber attack actually is
2:29
or what it entailed. It's not the first
2:31
of the big high street giants to
2:34
fall foul of this. Morrison's,
2:36
another one just before Christmas. serious
2:38
IT problems at Barclays Bank
2:40
as well and then in February
2:42
several banks and notably Lloyds
2:44
Banking facing outages leaving businesses unable
2:46
to pay staff all because
2:48
of cyber attacks and certainly a
2:50
great problem for big businesses
2:52
here plus the fact they may
2:55
even be fined by the
2:57
regulator for data and
2:59
keeping data if it was deemed that
3:01
they have not been holding it securely. Gavin, are
3:03
you a Liverpool man? I'm just looking at
3:05
a live feed from Sky News and it's a
3:07
sea of red. They are
3:09
very excited to be winning the Premier League. I'm
3:13
a Tottenham fan, no good for me. Oh, no. Okay,
3:16
I shouldn't have asked you. We'll leave it there. Gavin,
3:18
