Officers said they had investigated "comments about a forthcoming court case made during Kneecap's performance" at the festival on 28 June. However, after Crown Prosecution Service advice, they decided there is not enough evidence "to provide a realistic prospect of conviction for any offence". The Avon & Somerset force started investigating the Irish group's show last month, as well as comments by punk-rap duo Bob Vylan. It said they were looking at a possible public order incident. Police said on Friday that the investigation into Bob Vylan's performance was ongoing. The London duo were widely criticised - and caused a BBC crisis - after leading on-stage chants of "death to the IDF" (Israel Defence Forces). Kneecap posted a photograph on Instagram, which the group said was an email from police announcing the case was being dropped. They said their packed Glastonbury gig was a "celebration of love and solidarity" and reporting used "wildly misleading headlines". Fears over what Kneecap might do or say during the performance had prompted the BBC not to show it live. The group said: "Every single person who saw our set knew no law was broken, not even close... yet the police saw fit to publicly announce they were opening an investigation." "There is no public apology, they don't send this to media or post it on police accounts," they added. The police statement on Friday said they had informed Kneecap of their decision to drop the case.

Tomorrowland is a dance music event as big as Glastonbury - and David Guetta was due to perform. Footage showed flames and thick plumes of black smoke engulfing the stage and spreading to nearby woodland on Wednesday. The annual festival in the town of Boom, north of Brussels, is one of the biggest in Europe and attracts about 400,000 people over two consecutive weekends. It is famous for its immersive and elaborate designs and attracts big names within dance music - including Guetta, best known for tracks When Love Takes Over and Titanium. Dutch DJs Martin Garrix and Charlotte de Witte were also due to perform, along with the likes of Swedish House Mafia, Eric Prydz and Alok. The festival's website described the creative elements which went into the elaborate main stage. The theme, described as Orbyz, was "set in a magical universe made entirely out of ice" and "full of mythical creatures".

Spokesperson Debby Wilmsen added: "We received some truly terrible news today. A fire broke out on the Tomorrowland site ... and our main stage was essentially destroyed there, which is truly awful. "That's a stage that took years to build, with so much love and passion. So I think a lot of people are devastated." Despite the fire, Tomorrowland organisers said they were still expecting 38,000 festivalgoers at DreamVille, the event's campsite.

Robin Kaye was a music supervisor on the long-running reality TV series. The bodies of the 70-year-old and her husband Thomas were discovered after officers conducted a welfare check at their home. Both had died from gunshot wounds. Detectives say Raymond Boodarian has been arrested in connection with their deaths. It is alleged the 22-year-old had burgled their property while they were away on 10 July - killing the couple upon their return. According to Los Angeles Police, there were "no signs of forced entry or trouble" at the property. Ms Kaye was an industry veteran - and had previously worked on shows including Lip Sync Battle and The Singing Bee, as well as several Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants.

The former Premier League club, which plays in the English second tier, confirmed the US rapper and producer plans to use his own money to invest in it, Sky Sports reports, although it didn't disclose financial details. "My love of football is well known, but it feels special to me that I make my move into club ownership with Swansea City," the music icon said in the announcement."The story of the club and the area really struck a chord with me," he added. "This is a proud, working class city and club. "An underdog that bites back, just like me. "I'm proud to be part of Swansea City. I am going to do all I can to help the club."

Liam and Noel Gallagher will resume their sold-out run of shows - their first since 2009 - with a performance at Heaton Park tonight, and two more on Saturday and Sunday. While tens of thousands bought tickets for Oasis's first two shows last weekend, crowds gathered to glimpse the large screens above the stage in the distance - in an area dubbed "Gallagher Hill" by some on social media. Manchester City Council has now said more steel fences have been erected around parts of the park to prevent ticketless fans from watching the gigs, and to protect nature in the park. "After taking stock of how the first two nights went, additional measures have now been deemed necessary and will be in place for the next three concerts," it said. "The erection of the fencing has a dual purpose - both to protect the environment from further damage and to dissuade people from gathering there. "The necessary measure means the concert will no longer be visible from this area." The fences will cover a large area of the hill within the park's cattle field, which is being developed as a new woodland area with around 300 young trees planted. The council added that there would be no facilities for people without a ticket, and said the event area is "double-walled with solid high security fencing all the way round". More than 2,000 event security staff and police officers will also be on duty around the site "to ensure both the safety and wellbeing of ticket-holders and that only those who have tickets access the concert", it said.

He added: "Our advice to music fans who don't have tickets for the concerts is to head into the city centre instead. "The whole city is going all out to celebrate and help everyone have a good time. "We've got some fantastic things going on with a real party atmosphere for everyone to enjoy, whether they've got tickets for the Oasis gigs or not."
