A man has died after becoming unwell while in police custody in Devon, the police watchdog says.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission said a 35-year-old man died in hospital after he was found "unwell in a cell" in Devon & Cornwall Police's custody suite in Torquay in the early hours of Wednesday. He has not been identified.

The IPCC said it "determined that an independent investigation should be carried out" and investigators were at Torquay police station to examine the scene. A post-mortem examination was also due to be carried out on the man's body, it added.

The Victorian Society has released its annual list of buildings it says are in urgent need of help and protection.

It includes the riverside Grade II Shapland and Petter brick factory, showroom and office complex in Barnstaple - the Oliver Buildings - which were designed by William Clement Oliver.

Society director Christopher Costello said: "Retaining historic buildings like those in the top 10 is vital to maintaining local identity and creating places in which people want to invest, live and work."

A man who lives close to a Devon zoo which had to recapture an escaped antelope said he was able to direct the staff to the animal after he followed it.

The lechwe antelope was tranquilised after escaping from Paignton Zoo. Mike Langman was leaving his house at about 08:30 when he saw the animal "come around the corner from behind the trees". 

The wildlife enthusiast said he approached the animal in a bid to stop it running into the road and followed it into Brantwood Drive. He said: "Not many people actually saw it - only a few of us that live here."

The animal was recaptured but later put down because it was "impossible to return the escapee to the herd, or find a suitable new home for him", the zoo said.

Giancarlo Gallifuoco gave the Gulls a half-time lead but Woking took control after the break.

"That was nowhere near the standards that we've set," 35-year-old Nicholson told BBC Radio Devon. "We were five yards off everything and we got beaten by the better team on the night, and I expect us to react, and react positively."

A man whose house was struck by lightning during storms which caused flash flooding across Cornwall said the noise of the strike was "deafening".

Fire crews were called to Crelly Terrace, near Helston, shortly before 04:00 and isolated power supplies after the strike. One occupant of the terrace received medical attention because of smoke inhalation.

Lloyd Game, who lives in one of the other houses, said: "Suddenly the smoke alarms went off, there was smoke everywhere in the house and the noise was deafening. Fortunately everybody is OK, but the electrics have been shot and there are scorch marks over the walls."

Trewirgie Junior School in Redruth (pictured) will not be open until Monday because of accommodation problems, director of learning and teaching, Daniel Simons confirmed.

He said: "We're looking at where we can house 270 children ... there aren't that many spaces in Redruth that can host that many children because we're a large school."

Elsewhere in the town, Redruth School, a secondary which was also closed today, said it would be open again on Thursday.

The 31-year-old Welshman was forced to leave the field after just 15 minutes.

"The initial prognosis is that he's going to be out for a little while - he may well require an operation," head coach Rob Baxter told BBC Sport. "If he does he'll have that very shortly, and then you're talking about a six to eight week recovery period."

It was a wild night for many last night, with torrential rain, thunder and lightning, causing problems in Cornwall. 

One of the worst affected areas was a small industrial estate near Redruth, where businesses were flooded after the nearby river broke its banks.

Carpenter Adam Hillier is assessing the damage to his workshop after it was deluged with 4ft of flood water.
