TRUMP ATTACKS CLINTON AT HEATED DEBATE

Donald Trump has used the second US presidential debate in St Louis to attack Hillary Clinton over allegations of abuse by her husband.

Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton wouldn't directly address Donald Trump's comments about her husband.

But she did say her Republican rival is unfit to be US President.
