LONDON — The police opened fire on London Bridge on Friday, according to witnesses, and the Metropolitan Police said they had been responding to a stabbing near the busy thoroughfare.

A man was detained by the police and a number of people were injured, the police said in a statement. The events brought the busy central London area around the bridge to a standstill and set off panic.

Footage posted on social media showed a crowd surrounding a man whom they appeared to be holding to the ground. One man can be seen carrying a large knife away from the area as at least three police officers respond with their guns drawn. A shot is then heard being fired, as witnesses scream.

Additional videos posted on social media showed police vehicles blocking both sides of the roadway on London Bridge. A clip taken from on board a nearby bus showed three police officers with their guns drawn and pointed at a person lying on the ground.

One witness described seeing a man wielding a knife shot by police.

The British Transport Police said that the nearby London Bridge station, one of the city’s busiest transit hubs, had been closed. London Ambulance Service called it a “major incident.”

We have now declared a major incident and have a number of crews at the scene in London Bridge.

We will share more information as soon as we have it. https://t.co/ICwDVAgidE

John McManus, a BBC reporter who was crossing the bridge at the time of the incident, told the news outlet that he had seen a group of men involved in a fight with another man on the bridge. The police then arrived, and “a number of shots were fired at this man.”

Prime Minister Boris Johnson issued a statement thanking the police and emergency services for their “immediate response” and said he was being kept updated.

In 2017, London Bridge was the scene of a terrorist attack in which six people were killed when a van careered onto the sidewalk, mowing down pedestrians. Three attackers then leapt from the vehicle wielding knives and attacking bystanders before being killed by the police.

Warning! Graphic

Nice маслин в бошку чуваку прилетел. What really happened? Just a stabbing (not a terrorist attack) and police were unable to take it under control?

just a stabbing wont drive clicks :2 cents:

If you stab and attack innocent people you will and should be put down. Not asked nicely to put down the knife and surrender.

Terrorism
the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

This is how Russia deals with Terrorists. Looks like the same response to me if not even a harder response. Looks like they don't fuck around and play nice with terrorist either.

Seems the police executed him, so he's very happy now with his 72 virgins virgins in paradise. LOL

At least he didn't have a gun like American terrorists do.

Spreading peace... the islamic way.

I had heard due to the rise in terror they have run out of virgins and now they get slightly used twinks :thumbsup

The Russian FSB operators at your videos are killing the Islamists or those who have posted a comment about Vladimir Putin or said something wrong about Alina Kabaeva in the Internet.

I don't see any terrorists in the London video. I see a bunch of idiots with knives who want to stab each other for a bottle of vodka or what they are fighting for today in Britain. I don't see any terrorists there. I see a bunch of LOCAL alcoholics with knives.

This is not a reason to shoot someone of them fatally and course it's not a reason to make a panic of civilians on the bridge. This is absolutely unprofessional.

You’ve got to be trolling with that comment lol.

2 people so far have died. So I guess that's ok with you. Here you go for your bleeding heart for terrorist. Non lethal.

FYI you have spoken much shit here about ***** so I guess you will be getting a knock on the door soon? Net? I hope FSB doesn't monitor GFY or you are fucked in the popa/zhopa.

bbbbbbbbbbb just in.

London Bridge attack – live updates: Two dead and three more wounded in stabbing, as man in fake suicide vest fatally shot by police.

It is an attempt to boost support for Brexit before the election, it will likely work, but I don’t approve of the techniques employed.

Years ago they used to use tunnels for assassination, as there would be no independent cameras, it is a similar philosophy to using bridges now, where there are no shops, officers or houses with CCTV, allowing TPTB to control the narrative.

mods are still drunk, this thread should be moved in another section

The biggest issue to come out of this is that he was on licence from prison on terrorism charges...

Someone high on the food chain will be answering some very awkward questions.....

the judges here let rapist and murders out all the time with no repercussions.... good luck with that :2 cents:

Seems the redneck ones over here are way more prolific than their brown London counterparts.

That's absolutely ok. Have you been to London? The people there drink vodka like horses and stabbing is a normal thing there. It's not a terrorism and it's not a reason to make panic of civilians.

Вы не бывали в Лондоне, сэр?

Nah. Not even close.

Even though muslims are only 1% they account for almost 30% of the terrorism.

They actually make 13/52 look good.

Fuckers!!

If any good well come out of it it will be that this has happened just before an election so hopefully parties will show a hard line against Islam and the dangers it poses.

I can walk the streets in a 3rd world country and feel far now safe than I would in London.

After all, the attacker was misguided youth not able to fit in British Society.

We need to love him, care for him, understand why they are doing it.

This is what media would say.

That is exactly the reason the event was carried out just before the election

Bang, Bang :thumbsup:thumbsup

I thought English was you mother tongue. Police did NOT execute him. The police prevented him from blowing up his suicide west and killing more people.... :2 cents:

Not in America... In America it's you guys... According to the FBI and DHS.

You would have to go back to where you came from for your stats to be true for you.

This sounds like a terrorist attack, again as well. UK got absolutely trashed by muslims. Acid attacks, van drivings into pedestrians, knieve attacks they all related to muslims. The whole country is lost.

Released early from jail.


British justice...

Was he a refugee? - I didn't know that...

Wrong. On a per capita basis, nonwhites (except asians) commit most of the terrorism, gun violence, rape and murder in the US.

Could you imagine if they had guns....
