US civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has died aged 84.

Jackson was a key figure during the US civil rights movement of the 1960s, and was known for being the first African-American to make the jump from activism to major-party presidential politics.

Here, we take a look at his life in pictures.

Two people were killed and three others were injured at a shooting at a high school hockey game in Pawtucket.

The civil rights leader visited the city to encourage black and ethic minority Brits to register to vote.
