A white van has reportedly mowed down at least 20 people on London Bridge in a suspected terror attack in the UK capital city.
There are also unconfirmed reports that at least seven people have been stabbed as witnesses told of bodies ‘strewn’ on the road at the iconic bridge in central London.
Further witnesses say they heard ‘rapid gunfire’ and police have confirmed that they are responding to a separate incident at nearby Borough Market – a popular and busy area containing many bars, pubs and restaurants.
One witness said she saw three people with what appeared to be their throats cut on London Bridge amid the ‘utter chaos’.
Reports from further witnesses say they saw three men ump out of the van and began ‘randomly stabbing people’ along Borough High Street with 12-inch long knives.
The news comes less three months after the Westminster Bridge attack in which six people were killed drove a car into pedestrians and less than two weeks after the suicide bombing at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester.
More details to come.
