Good job done by the police. Any risk of a bomb they are right to use deadly force. Doubt you want to use a taser with a bomb!

Nice to see the public pile on and give him a good shoe'ing.
Some fascinating footage from nearby. Gives an indication on how quick news travels and the level of the 'terror and panic' such events have on people nearby.

Seems like it was needed, but at the same time the fella was ignoring police orders by staying on him. If there was a bomb involved it could’ve fecked shit up. Don’t want to slate the guy though because I’m sure it was 100% needed (restraining him like that)
Those Londoners are very brave.
Yeah. He's brave and all but as soon as the police give an order or are in control he needs to get the feck out of there
Wtf is that chap getting out of his pocket and throwing on the ground... Seems strange that would be high on his priority list considering he's got the knife in his hand
You know I noticed that also. Very stange indeed.
Always in awe of our police force at times like this.
Hopefully fatalities are at a minimum.

the suspect was wearing a hoax explosive device
Hoax suicide vest confirmed by met
Scum. Good riddance.
Who's the dude with the knife?
Michael Gove's dealer?
The bloke with the knife seems to chuck his friday night stash away
I'd have expected a bigger bag

Friday night?! It was a huge baggy! I’m going with Gove’s dealer
I'm assuming you've heard about the mock suicide vest now.
I would imagine this guy has gone into a premises near the bridge, attacked people and been chased down by members of the public on the bridge. Police called and turn up to see that going on, members of the public are holding him down and say he's got a device on, police pull them off and shoot him dead.
I was only there a few days ago. Damn.
Not sure how I'd react but I hope I'd try to help.

I would run away as fast as my legs would carry me. I'm no hero.
@sammsky1 also with regards to protocol I won't go into detail. That said you can use reasonable force to defend yourself and others if you have an honest held believe it's necessary. If you take a life it must be absolutely necessary to do so.
I'd probably shit myself and outpace Usain Bolt.
Police done the right thing, you can't tell if something is real or fake from a quick look. Definitely had to shoot just incase it was a bomb, can be set off in an instant.
Everyone reacted in the correct manner and bravely luckily.

I'd imagine a suicide best with potential to blow up would mean it's necessary in this instance?
If the cop gets fecked for this it's ridiculous.
Seems an entirely appropriate response given the circumstances.
Convenient timing right before the elections.
I would say so yes
Ruined his weekend
Thanks for reply and your insight.
Yes am aware of the hoax vest statement. VDO shows the police to be assessing the situation, and then the officer takes a deliberate calculated decision and shoots.
Being told that Suspect is wearing a bomb vest is certainly grounds to protect self and others! Also it reduces suitable places to shoot so really only leaves a head shot as the certain way to eliminate the threat.
We are lucky to such brave policemen.
hahaha I said to my colleague I wonder what he's chucking away, looked really suspicious. To be fair he was acting odd in all of the video I just assumed it was nerves, who the hell would hang onto the knife like that with armed police around?
Ruined his weekend now
christmas office parties as well
So your saying it's a false flag?
Please enlighten us more...
In all honesty wtf does he throw away? 
Kudos to the pedestrians who got stuck in. Hope no one is seriously hurt.
Well it genuinely does look like a huge bag of cocaine.In all honesty wtf does he throw away?
This guy is ridiculously suspicious
Although the object in his hand doesn’t seem to have any glare to it, why does he have to hold it by what looks like a handle and what did he throw away. Very weird.
