Officers were called to Johnson's of Old Hurst, Huntingdon, at 1.24pm to reports of a "distressing" incident involving a three-year-old child. The toddler has been taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital with serious injuries - and is in "critical but stable" condition, according to Cambridgeshire Police. A 30-year-old man, from Norfolk, has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, police added. Detectives from the force's Major Crime Unit are investigating. "At this stage, we are speaking to people who were at the zoo at the time of this distressing incident to understand more about the circumstances," said Detective Inspector Verity McCann. "We do not believe the man arrested and the child are known to each other. "Officers are supporting the boy's family at hospital, and our thoughts remain with them." The zoo at Johnson's is home to more than 100 animals, including crocodiles, Bengal tigers, African lions and sloth bears, according to its website. The crocodile enclosure has been closed "until further notice", according to the zoo. In a statement, the zoo said: "Our thoughts and prayers are with the boy and his family following the incident that occurred today. "Out of respect to the family, our Tropical House will remain closed until further notice." A blog post from the zoo states that the crocodiles were initially kept to help dispose of waste meat from the butchery, but they went on to be the start of a zoo. The crocodiles are kept in a converted cattle barn, which has metal-fenced elevated walkways looking down on large pools of water surrounded by tropical vegetation.

"This is now a live criminal investigation, and I would ask people to refrain from speculation online. "The police will provide an update with further information in due course. "My thoughts are with the young victim and his family during a hugely traumatic and difficult time." A spokesperson for Cambridgeshire County Council said: "Our thoughts are with the victim and their family, but, as this is a live police investigation, we cannot comment any further."

Director-general Matt Brittin, who took up the role in May, told employees on Wednesday that £160m of staff and non-staff cost savings would be made from across BBC News and TV and radio teams by the end of the financial year. More savings across all areas will be set out in the coming months, with 700 corporate roles also expected to go and senior leader roles to be reduced by at least 10%, he added. In a follow-up message from Jonathan Munro, the interim chief executive of BBC News and Current Affairs, staff were told details of cuts and changes to specific shows, and that a review of chief presenter roles would also be carried out. These cuts are the first to be announced as part of a huge savings plan announced in April, with up to 2,000 jobs to go in total - the corporation's biggest downsizing in almost 15 years. In his memo, Mr Munro told staff: "Our news presenters have a unique relationship with our audiences. However, given the savings we need to make across the whole of BBC News, we are carrying out a review of our chief presenter roles. "This is designed to ensure we have the right number of presenters, deployed as flexibly and efficiently as possible, to balance audience needs with best value for money." On-air editor roles are also being reviewed and a proposal has been made to close dedicated social presenter roles. In one positive for Newsnight, Mr Munro said it would move to a peak-time slot on Fridays, "building on the success of its refreshed format". 'A doubly difficult time for everyone' The scale of savings needed "requires tough choices" and all divisions "will be making significant savings", Mr Brittin said in his internal note to staff. Overall, the plan is to cut commissioning spend across the Content, News and Nations departments by about £80 million in the year 2027-28. Broadcast TV channels and the radio network portfolio would be reviewed "as audiences move online", Mr Brittin said, and steps will also be taken to "reduce duplication, clarify accountability, and increase the speed of decision making". "We live in very uncertain times," the BBC boss added. "Our audiences rely on us every day to keep them informed, entertained and equipped to make sense of the world. Making savings while fulfilling our mission means a doubly difficult time for everyone." 'Death by a thousand cuts' Philippa Childs, head of media and entertainment union Bectu, responded to the announcement by saying the cuts were "far from ideal" taking place at the same time as the BBC's charter renewal - and that they would affect the broadcaster's ability to deliver its public service mission. "In an era of fake news and an industry that is becoming more concentrated in the hands of a few multinational corporations, the UK needs a confident, ambitious and sustainably-funded BBC more than ever," she said. "The charter renewal must put the BBC's funding on a secure, long-term pathway or it risks death by a thousand cuts."

Cathy Sweet, head of TV and film at entertainment and performing arts trade union Equity, described the cuts as "devastating" and said they risked the BBC becoming "unable to live up to its aim to inform, educate and entertain". Mr Brittin, a former Google executive, replaced Tim Davie as director-general in last month. Mr Davie announced his resignation from the corporation in November last year, amid controversy and a $10bn (about $7.5bn) lawsuit over the editing of a BBC documentary about Donald Trump.

England reached stumps on 222-6 in response to New Zealand's 391 all out, trailing by 169 runs after a frustrating second day for the hosts, bookended by profligacy with the ball and misjudgement with the bat. Phillips smashed his first century for New Zealand in 133 balls as England took the entire morning session to wrap up the Black Caps' innings, before their reply unravelled in an extended evening session. Scorecard: England vs New Zealand, second Test, OvalGot Sky? Watch England vs NZ live on the Sky Sports appNot got Sky? Get instant access with NOW - no contract Matt Henry starred with the ball, trapping Root (46) - two shy of his 14,000th Test run - and Brook (24) lbw in the space of three balls in a seismic shift in momentum. Emilio Gay (53 off 114) had kickstarted England's innings with a second successive Test half-century, only to fall two balls later as New Zealand worked their way through the top order. A 39-run stand between debutants James Rew and Jordan Cox looked to have seen England through to the close, only for Will O'Rourke to dismiss Rew at the death to leave England six down and in trouble. Advantage New Zealand after dominant day two New Zealand resumed on 291-7 at the start of a miserable morning session for England where the hosts were architects of their own downfall. Ben Duckett shelled a gilt-edged chance to remove Kyle Jamieson on 15 in the third over of the day, before their persistence with a short-ball strategy failed to bear fruit. England's abject start was epitomised by part-time spinner Jacob Bethell taking the new ball after five overs, with quick Jofra Archer not introduced until the 15th. Jamieson took full advantage of his early reprieve, piling on 87 from 96 in an increasingly frustrating eighth-wicket stand for England. Bethell, just as he had in the evening session on day one, provided the breakthrough England craved when he bowled Jamieson in the over after drinks. Phillips was rewarded for valiantly surviving Archer's bouncer barrage late on day one, hitting 18 fours to notch his first Test ton. Matt Henry holed out off the very next delivery and Phillips lasted just two more, with the centurion the last to fall as England finally dismissed New Zealand for 391. England navigated three challenging overs to reach lunch on 15-0, but undid their hard work in a moment of madness as Gay called for a single that left Duckett stranded, Nathan Smith's direct hit sending him on his way after a blistering 36 off 25 balls. Bethell was unable to follow his bowling heroics with the bat, sharply caught behind by wicketkeeper Tom Blundell off Smith as England were reduced to 68-2. But a fifty partnership between Gay and stand-in captain Root steadied the ship, taking England to tea on 118-2 before Gay atoned for Duckett's run-out with another valuable half-century, two weeks on from his debut knock at Lord's. Gay's celebrations were short-lived, with New Zealand triggering a successful review for caught behind just in time after Will O'Rourke found extra bounce over the wicket - and an edge - before it carried through to Blundell. Root moved to within touching distance of becoming only the second man in Test history to reach 14,000 runs in a handy 28-run partnership with Brook, who produced an early contender for shot of the summer with a nonchalant back-foot six. England's encouragement came to an abrupt halt when an unsuccessful review confirmed Root's fate after he was struck on the pad by Henry, who trapped Brook plumb three balls later to transform the complexion of the contest. New Zealand looked to have squandered a late wicket after a third dropped catch of the series from Rachin Ravindra, but O'Rourke spared his blushes by dismissing Rew in the next over as the Black Caps applied further gloss to a day that belonged to them. Henry: We reaped the rewards New Zealand seamer Matt Henry, speaking to Sky Sports after his 2-57: "It's nice to be able to contribute. We were really good. It was pretty tough, England put us under pressure early [in their innings]. "But the ability to rein back some momentum was huge for us, and then obviously we reaped the rewards at the end there. [On Glenn Phillips' hundred]: "Given what the guy went through last night, with a smile on his face, it's pretty cool to have one of those guys in your locker room. "To be there for him getting a hundred, that's what this team is all about." New Zealand's day at The Oval Sky Sports Cricket's Nasser Hussain: "Day two belongs to New Zealand. England were very poor in the first hour and New Zealand and Phillips capitalised on it. Their bowlers found control and got wickets, and they are in a very strong position. "This is a good cricket pitch and has produced some exciting cricket. A different pace from Lord's but no less watchable."

The former Top Gear presenter shared the revelation in the final episodes of the fifth series of Clarkson's Farm, which premiered overnight on Amazon Prime Video. The show documents the trials of farming on his land in Oxfordshire. He had warned fans on Instagram that the latest episodes would be a "difficult watch". "They're really, really difficult," he said in a video posted on Tuesday evening. Clarkson is seen revealing the news in the show to co-stars Charlie Ireland and Kaleb Cooper, saying he's known since May. The 66-year-old describes the disease as "aggressive" but says it's at a "really early stage". "I've got cancer," Clarkson tells farm manager Kaleb and land agent Charlie during discussions about harvest planning. The TV host says he expects to be "fine" but will be out of action "for a while", before revealing in the final episode of the series that he has undergone an operation to remove part of his prostate. He says: "I won't know whether it's worked or not until November probably. The prostate, 10% of it's dead, the 10% where the cancer is." The programme later cuts to Clarkson in hospital, where he says "some of the treatment has gone awry". "I'm going to be here for a little while," he says. "I don't know what's going to happen." He adds: "We started season five with me in a hospital bed and here we are at the end of season five and I'm back in a hospital bed. "If this is all successful, I'll see you for season six. And if it isn't, I won't. Take care, everyone." Read more from Sky News:PM to face leadership challengeTrump leaves Netanyahu 'choice' In an earlier Instagram post to fans, Clarkson wrote: "Sombre news - Clarkson's Farm, ordinarily we try to keep the show bucolic and charming, and cheerful, but two episodes which drop in the middle of the night tonight are, they're none of those things, really." The news of Clarkson's cancer diagnosis comes two years after he underwent a heart procedure after suffering a "sudden deterioration" in his health. He told The Sunday Times doctors believed he was potentially "days away" from becoming very ill. "It seems that of the arteries feeding my heart with nourishing blood, one was completely blocked and the second of three was heading that way," he said. Clarkson later told The Sun he had been warned by medics that "a lot" of the work he does "will have to go" - and he must "cut my alarmingly high levels of cholesterol". Charity thanks Clarkson Prostate Cancer UK thanked Clarkson for sharing his diagnosis and treatment, saying it would raise "vital awareness". Chiara De Biase, the charity's fundraising and health strategy director, said: "Thankfully he found the disease at an early stage, but sadly this is still not the experience of many men across the UK." In a statement, she added that thousands of men every year "are diagnosed too late for a cure," but the Transform screening trial will "generate the vital evidence to ensure those at highest risk are diagnosed earlier". She said those worried about prostate cancer can access the charity's online risk checker or ask their GP for a blood test. Diddly Squat becomes a hit Clarkson is best known for presenting the BBC's Top Gear and then fronting another car show, The Grand Tour, on Amazon's streaming service, before also taking the helm of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? Clarkson's Farm debuted in 2021. He has since become one of the most vocal critics of the government's inheritance tax plans for some farmers. It follows the presenter and his crew as they navigate the challenges of running Diddly Squat Farm near Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire. Since running the farm in 2019 and launching his reality series, Clarkson has become a vocal supporter of farmers and attended a protest in London against the Government's move to introduce inheritance tax on farmland in November 2024.

Attorney General Lord Richard Hermer, a close ally of the prime minister, will say Labour are now "cleaning up" the "mess" left by politicians who campaigned for Leave. Politics Hub: Follow the latest His speech at an event held by the European Movement advocacy group comes ahead of the 10th anniversary of the referendum next Tuesday. Sir Keir Starmer's government is seeking closer ties with the EU, and he is holding talks with key European leaders in France this week as part of the G7 summit. A second EU-UK summit since Labour came to power is scheduled to take place in Brussels on 22 July, where a youth mobility scheme is set to be agreed. The divisive issue of the UK's relationship with the bloc has been brought back into the limelight in recent weeks, with prospective Labour leadership hopeful Wes Streeting describing Brexit as a "catastrophic mistake". The PM and chancellor, Rachel Reeves, have both suggested it had a negative impact on the economy but have promised they will not go back on their manifesto promises not to rejoin the single market or the customs union. Lord Hermer will repeat the argument that Brexit has damaged the UK economy in his speech later. 'Farage knows Brexit has damaged Britain' "Strikingly, the politicians who were key proponents of Brexit and major figures in the campaign to Leave now appear reluctant to remind us of the promises that they made," he will say. "When was the last time you heard Nigel Farage proudly talk about Brexit? Or make the case for the benefits it's brought Britain? "The reason he has become uncharacteristically quiet about what he used to describe as his crowning achievement is because he knows the damage it caused Britain, our standing in the world, and our economy." Expert analysis from Sky News:Trump's left Netanyahu with a horrendous choiceWhy Ukraine could have fresh hope of US support Mr Farage has previously said Brexit "has failed" but blamed it on the then-Conservative government for "mismanaging" Britain's departure. He has criticised Labour's attempts to get closer to the EU, notably an agreement with France designed to combat small boat crossings. The Tories have dismissed Lord Hermer's criticism, saying he "should focus on his job as attorney general".

Thomas Tuchel's side scored twice in each half to get their in Group L campaign off to an impressive start. Who caught the eye and whose place is maybe under threat going forward in the tournament? As it happened | Teams | Stats | Group L guideWorld Cup day-by-day schedule | Latest: World CupFollow our World Cup coverage in the Sky Sports AppGroup L guide | England's routes to World Cup finalWorld Cup 2026 fixture schedule and UK kick-off times Jordan Pickford - 7 Got a hand to Baturina's first equaliser, but the power of the strike was too much for the 'keeper, while he was helpless to prevent Musa from levelling again just before the break. Important stop to keep out Pasalic's drive with a quarter of an hour to go when England led 3-2. Reece James - 7 Linked up dangerously down the right with Madueke in the first half, but could have been tighter on Perisic for Croatia's second goal on the stroke of half-time. Was then moved into midfield when Spence was brought on. John Stones - 6 Mix-up with Pickford led to early Croatia corner and was turned for Croatia's first equaliser, but overall a composed display at the back before being replaced late on by Guehi. Ezri Konsa - 6 Lost Perisic for Croatia's second goal just before the break and there will be questions about an England back line that conceded two first-half goals. Could be replaced by Guehi for the second Group L game with Ghana. Nico O'Reilly - 6 Wayward first-half ball put his skipper in trouble, while he spurned a glorious chance to head his side 4-2 ahead at start of second half, before seeing a close-range header clawed away by Livakovic. Elliot Anderson - 8 Put in a series of biting challenges on his World Cup debut and was key to England's press. Lovely pass to release Bellingham for his side's third to start the second half to cap off an eye-catching 23-pass move and will be a key presence in front of the back four if England are to go deep in the tournament. Declan Rice - 7 Consistently dangerous outswinging delivery from corners, including for Kane's second goal. Unlucky not to score with a curling effort at start of second half, before surprisingly being hooked with 18 minutes to go as an injury precaution. Noni Madueke - 8 Positive run to the byline created England's first effort on goal for Kane in what was a sign of things to come in the first half from the Arsenal flyer, before being felled for the early penalty. Hugely impressive attacking display down the right which will give Tuchel a selection headache going forward in the tournament when Saka returns to full fitness after an Achilles injury. Jude Bellingham - 7 Important challenge in the box on Musa to help preserve England's early lead, before losing the ball in the lead-up to Croatia's first goal. Brilliant solo effort to restore his side's advantage again just after half-time, before almost immediately adding a second from long range as the Real Madrid playmaker grew into the contest. Anthony Gordon - 6 Quiet display on the left wing from the new Barcelona flyer, who got the nod to start ahead of Rashford, but only because England largely favoured attacking down their right flank. Close to heading his side 4-2 ahead with a close-range effort, before making way for the Manchester United forward after 72 minutes. Harry Kane - 9 A man-of-the-match performance from the England captain, who kept his cool from the spot after seeing his initial penalty saved by Livakovic to give his side an early lead. The striker then headed in his 81st Three Lions goal to move level with Gary Lineker on 10 goals as his country's top World Cup scorer and the 32-year-old was even there at the end to make a goal-saving block with his midriff to prevent a certain Gvardiol goal. Substitutes Morgan Rogers - 6 Introduced with 18 minutes remaining but made little impact. Bukayo Saka - 7 Played a key role by setting up Rashford for England's late fourth after replacing Madueke on 72 minutes. Marcus Rashford - 7 Close to adding a fourth just moments after coming on with Rogers and Saka, only to be denied by Livakovic, before showing great composure to add his side's final goal with just five minutes left to play, the forward's 19th for his country. Djed Spence - 7 Could and should have scored his first England goal after entering the fray with 10 minutes to go, but faced with just the onrushing Livakovic to beat, the Spurs defender shot straight at the Croatia goalkeeper. Marc Guehi - 6 Late 87th-minute introduction in place of club-mate Stones and could start in England's second group game with Ghana.
