Chicago police under fire after "bait truck"   used to lure thieves

Police in the US city of Chicago say they will "take a hard look" at their use of "bait trucks" to catch thieves following criticism from activists. We'll speak to the man who posted a video on social media showing residents confronting police officers about a white unmarked truck. Also, an interview with the mother of Kim Wall, the journalist who was murdered a year ago. And the latest on Turkey's currency crisis and on the strike action by Ryanair pilots.
