What sounds like a lone wolf terrorist incident on London Bridge this afternoon.
Well done to members of the public who restrained the attacker and took a knife off him before police arrived.
Would like to think I would have done the same thing, but most likely I would have run away.
Shot by police when they arrived.

Its an interesting concept, fight or flight. I've always promised myself, if I am going, I am going kicking and screaming, not cowering on the floor.

Hats off to those brave members of the public that have undoubtedly saved lives today.

Religious nutta?

Unfortunately it appears he is still alive. Are the police aloud to have another go?

Spokesman for the Met Police just released statement - no mention of the heroic members of the public - no thanks - no recognition - nothing !

My son and wife are not affected by this thank goodness, some may recall Adam was on the tube in the last bungled attempt.
I cannot lose him (them)

According to BBC news, members of the public were praised/thanked by Neil Basu and PM.

Not many yards from my youngest's offices, they got locked down rather quickly, fair play, Adam reports the building alarm went off and the usually calm announcer was clearly shaken and out of breath! Adam is home now and happy it was dealt with so well.

Unless they have changed the rules/ process (they promised they would) that firearms officer will have been suspended already pending the investigation - complete madness
