The Police have stopped a suspect on London Bridge following an alleged knife attack.

A person is believed to have started attacking people with a knife and was then, according to witnesses, shot by police.

According to Sky, One person, who is not the suspect, has been killed, and there are multiple casualties.

The Police spokesman said: “Police were called at 1.58pm to a stabbing at premises near to London Bridge. Emergency services attended, including officers from the Met and City of London Police.”

“A man has been detained by police. We believe a number of people have been injured.”

Just after 3.20pm, MET Police said, “At this stage, the circumstances relating to the incident at London Bridge remain unclear.”

“However, as a precaution, we are currently responding to this incident as thought it is terror-related.”

Later on, a video emerged of a man being shot by Police and knife taken from him.

Video from the bridge shows a group of up to 10 pedestrians tackling a person, with one pedestrian grabbing a large knife, before police tell them to get off the person and a shot is then heard.

Another video taken from a different angle, shows one armed police officer at the beginning of the northside of the bridge crouched behind a police car aiming a gun down the bridge.

The video then moves to an unresponsive person on the pavement on the east side of the bridge.

Another video showed three officers pulling a man wearing jeans off the person on the ground before they step back back.

Pedestrians on London Bridge, one of the main Thames crossings into the City, were seen running back towards the southside of the bridge, while drivers were seen abandoning their cars and running back.

Offices around the bridge are on lockdown and London Bridge station is closed, while trains are not stopping, British Transport Police said.

Police men later arrived the scene with helicopter.

Joe, who was evacuated from his office overlooking London Bridge said, “We saw loads of police cars heading towards the bridge. We saw a man on the ground and police pointing guns at him.”

He added he later saw a lady being carried away from the scene.

Several police cars have been pictured on the bridge, with a lorry stopped across the central reservation of the dual carriageway which police then tried to enter as they pointed guns at the trailer.

As at the time of this report, pavements on both sides of the bridge have large bollards on to prevent vehicles. They were installed after the 2017 London Bridge terror attack.

There are now trauma packs strategically based in office buildings around the city of London area, with trained private workers, to respond to major attacks. One of the lessons learnt from 2017.

With several people reportedly stabbed, Joe on Twitter says, “Well done to the now-mainstream news site which felt the need to tell us that the police on London Bridge shot a ‘bearded man’. For future reference, the point of a dog whistle is that some people aren’t meant to hear it.”

Meanwhile, the police and especially the man who took the knife from the allged terrorist at London Bridge have been commended for the rapid response.

Reem Yousef says,

I was below the bridge, about 30 metres to one side of it. I heard shouting.

 

I looked up and it appeared to be potentially four or five people – it looked like it was a fight.

 

Then I heard someone shouting ‘get back, get back’.

 

People started running across the bridge and then [I] heard two gunshots and at that point obviously I ran.

Ordinary members of the public tackled this guy, armed with a knife and apparently wearing a bomb vest. Such incredible bravery – can we focus on that over everything else please. Those people are heroes.

“People are dead. Three families are bereaved. Many others injured. And a senior nurse in the NHS believes it’s all a staged plot to prevent Corbyn being crowned leader. Never mind the climate emergency, the crisis of sanity is a far more proximal existential threat ”

Nicky Harley tweeted, “Second time in two years I’ve anchored a terror attack at London Bridge. I cannot help but admire the amazingly selfless, brave individuals who tackled the knifeman, knowing what happened last time, and seeing the ‘bomb’ on him. I take my hat off to you sirs #LondonBridge”

DILEMMA

The confusion in London is simply this:

Some faction are strong that the Police killed an innocent man, some think the man was a terrorist and deserve to die, thereby calling the man that disarmed him a hero.

What happened exactly?

Meanwhile, there was an alleged Muslim attack in Holland today.
