Witnesses have said that armed officers are understood to be at the scene after a white van mounted the pavement before driving into people. The Metropolitan Police say they are dealing with an incident on the bridge. Transport for London said the bridge has been closed in both directions due to a "major police incident". Bus routes were being diverted. BBC reporter Holly Jones, who was on the bridge at the time of the incident, said the van was driven by a man and was "probably travelling at about 50 miles an hour". About five people were being treated for injuries after the vehicle mounted the pavement and hit them, she said. She said the van, which was travelling from the direction of central London, headed towards the south side of the river. London Ambulance Service tweeted: "Multiple resources attending an incident at #LondonBridge, please avoid the area".
Here we go again I fear this new wave of attacks is just the tip of the iceberg and sadly feel this will become the norm. Disgusted but sad to say that for me I'm not surprised! I personally will not let these kind of incidents affect my plans, f*ck them all, the bastards! EDIT: Terrorists, not Muslims.
The genie is out of the bottle, unfortunately and while we continue to play by the rules and respect the rights of these ****s, while at the same time they plot to kill us....we'll never win.
It seems three men jumped out of the van and began stabbing pedestrians, they moved off south so it's likely they are holed up in Borough Market, that is a series of narrow streets behind the Cathedral...
Why is it that if you have a punch up ( not condoning it in any way ) while travelling abroad masquerading as an English fan you have your passport confiscated and you have to report to your local police station at kick off time on a match day. Old matey from Manchester although on a terrorist watch list was allowed to gallivant all around Europe and North Africa prior to his horrific attack?
