'Deeply loved' father shot dead in Stoke Newington named
A "deeply loved" father who was shot dead in north London has been named by police. Erdal Ozmen, 45, was found with gunshot injuries by Metropolitan Police officers who were called to Dynevor Road in Stoke Newington, a little after midnight on Tuesday and was pronounced dead at the scene. Mr Ozmen, was "a father-of-one and was deeply loved by his family", Detective Chief Inspector Dave Whellams, who is leading the murder investigation, said. Appealing to the public, he added: "Were you in the Dynevor Road area late on Monday night into early Tuesday morning? Did you see anyone acting out of the ordinary? "Did you hear anything at all which perhaps seemed unusual - maybe people shouting, or a loud vehicle?" A post-mortem examination has not yet been carried out and Mr Ozmen's family are being supported by specialist officers. The motive for the murder remains unclear, officers said. No arrests have been made. Residents said they woke to the sounds of gunshots. Liza Dodds, 58, a youth worker who lives opposite Dynevor Road, said: "My husband woke up and said there was gunshots. The instant reaction was 'how do you know?' "We both got up and had a look. A police officer was doing CPR where the person fell. It seemed like they were going forever." Another resident said: "I heard a few gunshots and the first thing I thought was that it was fireworks, because you don't expect it to be a gun. "I was trying to sleep but then later I heard sirens from the police cars." One resident, who asked to remain anonymous, said: "We were out when it happened so we didn't hear or see anything. "But when we came back at around 1am, the whole area was cordoned off and the police officers told us that it will be a crime scene for a couple of days."

Gregg Wallace's replacement for final MasterChef episodes revealed
Gregg Wallace is set to be replaced by Irish chef Anna Haugh towards the end of the new MasterChef 2025 series. This decision follows an independent report substantiating 45 allegations against Wallace, including inappropriate sexual language and unwelcome physical contact. Co-host John Torode also had an allegation of racist language upheld against him, which he denies recalling. The BBC controversially decided to broadcast the 2025 series, stating it was to recognise the efforts of the amateur cooks involved. Anna Haugh will take over from Wallace after the semi-finals, while Grace Dent has already replaced him on the next series of Celebrity MasterChef.

British tourist ‘tried to drown daughter-in-law in Florida pool'
A British holidaymaker has been charged with attempted murder after allegedly trying to drown his daughter-in-law in a row over his will. Mark Gibbon, 62, from Beaconsfield in Buckinghamshire, was on a family holiday at Solterra Resort in Davenport, near Disney World, Florida, when the pair began arguing about 'the stipulations of his will', US police said. He was charged with attempted second-degree murder and two counts of battery. Mr Gibbon allegedly pushed the 33-year-old 'under the water and held her down multiple times', according to a probable cause arrest affidavit. His nine-year-old granddaughter 'jumped into the pool' to try and save her mother but Mr Gibbon allegedly pushed her away. 'She advised that she could not breathe and believed that she was going to drown,' officials wrote. '[The victim] advised that she had to fight Mark in order to get away from him and from under the water, but he kept pushing her back under.' The victim called for neighbours and shouted for them to call the police. He is said to have only stopped when neighbours said they were calling the authorities. Mr Gibbon is a lighting technician, who runs his own firm called MRG Lighting. He has worked on music videos for Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith and Paloma Faith, according to his website, as well as on film and TV sets. US police said Mr Gibbon allegedly admitted to pushing his daughter-in-law underwater, but said he did not intend to drown her. The victim reportedly suffered a couple of scratches. He claimed they had been drinking before they began discussing the will. He alleged his daughter-in-law had slapped him, which sparked the fallout. The suspect was taken into custody on Aug 3 at 5.19pm. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said: 'It's great that Polk County draws visitors from all across the world, but we expect vacationers to behave while they visit with us, just as we expect our lifelong residents to do the same. 'Because Mr Gibbon couldn't control his anger, he may find himself spending a lot more time in Florida than he had anticipated.' Mr Gibbon is being held at Polk County Jail without bond. His next court date is scheduled for Sept 9.
