Pelé lying in state at Santos stadium

We come live from the Urbano Caldeira Stadium in Santos in Brazil.

Thousands of people have gathered to pay their respects to Brazil legend Pelé who is lying in state at the ground of his former club Santos. OS's James Reynolds is there speaking to mourners about their memories of the player and to journalists who are there to cover the event.

We also hear from football fans around the world who share how they remember Pelé.

Dozens of inmates have escaped from a prison in northern Mexico after gunmen, suspected to be members of a drug cartel, opened fire on the facility. Our Latin America reporter gives details.
