Incident on London Bridge
- Thread starter Ubik
- Start date
Stolen from Reddit and stolen from Sky
Used to work in the area for a few years and I know it well. Plenty of days and nights around Borough Market, London Bridge, etc. Been in the bar shown in that video as well.
It's disgusting that this keeps happening. Credit to the police to responding so quickly though.

WTF some guy on Sky saying shots fired at a restaurant.
BBC News really trying to downplay this. Why?
eye witness on sky news is clearly pissed
Yup takes 30 seconds to get there. Think that's what's happened.
Because they're not jumping straight to conclusions and waiting for the facts.
Because hysteria is bad?
Witness on Sky 
They're always the most restrained at times like this. It's not downplaying as much as aversion to false reports.
People look terrified.
Which is not surprising as its a vivid demonstration on the power of terrorism.
all this stick together dont be scared shit is bs. it is scary
Thanks
Yeah they need not to show him again , clearly pissed.Witness on Sky
I'm not saying that the police and governments should be allowed to arrest whoever they want but we need to realize that this is a major problem in Europe and right now probably the biggest threat to our freedom. The only way I see to combat this is to give the police more ways to monitor people at least in the short term.
can you give me link to reddit thread?
It's either them getting spooked or revenge for the death of ISIS top cleric.
I suppose its not a bad thing RedNev is no longer around.
They need to increase the number of M16 agents and general police on the ground. The Tory cuts to those services have not helped.
The live feed on the reddit thread doesn't sound good at all.
Yeah and if you've ever crossed that bridge during rush hour you definitely know why.Pavements on that bridge are massive.
I'm really hoping for no fatalities.
BBC are very good at dealing with these kind of developing stories.
It's much more comprehensive and unbiased than BBC News, that's for sure.
Three posts above yours.
Oh come off it.

Sky News witnesses all sound quite shocked. It seems pretty bad.
It's so odd seeing things like this becoming more common in our country
SUMMARY FROM REDDIT: https://www.reddit.com/live/z1i00vs1iwx2/updates/8871a7e0-48ab-11e7-b417-0eeae5b88fc6
RECAP: There was an incident on the London Bridge where a car was seen travelling at a high rate of speed and running over people.
There are conflicting reports of how many suspects there are but anywhere from 1-3 suspects got out of the van and started stabbing people.
Multiple people are injured. No known number is official. Casualties are also reported but not confirmed.
There are also reports from nearby stores/cafes of suspects entering them and stabbing/shooting people. Still unconfirmed.
We are working to confirm all reports.

Not necessarily. Just because we change things in society to combat a threat doesn't mean we can't change things towards the opposite once the problem has been dealt with.
Not again
we can debate later?
FFS. How many of these cnuts are out there?
That would be a good start yes.
Jesus Christ....
From the reddit thread
BREAKING:
"Significant" gunfire reported and up to six shots fired near the Shard
There are now reports of" five or six shots" fired or explosions of some kind from witnesses on Southwark Street, about 300 yards from the Shard.
"The sense I'm getting is that this is not a situation that is over," LBC's reporter on ground has said. "This is still an incident that is very much ongoing".

"Police are searching for three suspects - reports
Police are now searching for three suspects, a BBC reporter at the scene says.
He says there are also reports that some people have been stabbed.
The priority for the police is now to get people - many whom where enjoying a nightout in central London - out of the area.
The police cordon is being moved further and further out, our reporter adds."

I believe the gunfire was from the police. Hopefully there are no casualties and these 3 suspects get arrested quickly.
BBC now confirming what LBC reported that there are 3 suspects.
The Reddit feed is pulling together various sources, including the major news channels but also "unofficial" sources, which makes it more rounded. BBC are just filtering the information that they deem acceptable for us to know.
