rooster59 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Police rush to London Bridge after reports of van hitting pedestrians By Megan Revell LONDON (Reuters) - British police rushed to an incident on London Bridge on Saturday after witnesses said a van ploughed into pedestrians and another witness told Reuters she saw people with throats cut on London Bridge. Police said they were dealing with an incident but gave no further details while the London Ambulance Service said it was sending multiple resources to the incident. A Reuters reporter near the scene said she saw 10 police cars rushing towards London Bridge. One witness told Reuters that she saw what appeared to be three people with knife wounds and possibly their throats cut. A witness told the BBC she saw a speeding white van veering into pedestrians. The witness said the van hit five to six people. Reuters television pictures showed dozens of emergency vehicles in the area around London Bridge. London's transport authority said London Bridge rail station had been closed at the request of the police. On May 22, a suicide bomber killed 22 people at a pop concert by U.S. singer Ariana Grande in Manchester in northern England. The Manchester bombing was the deadliest attack in Britain since July 2005, when four British Muslim suicide bombers killed 52 people in coordinated attacks on London's transport network. -- © Copyright Reuters 2017-06-04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brewsterbudgen Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Another incident at Voxhall .... according to the news report ABC ... live 3 or 4 incidents unfolding ..... this is an orchestrated attack on innocent public.. muslim attackers being hunted .... Police are now saying the Vauxhall incident is not connected to the London Bridge and Borough attacks. Didn't the mayor say that Londoners are just going to have to get used to these incidents.Yes. Just as we did in the IRA bombing campaign in the 80s. And not just Londoners; the risk of terrorism is fairly widespread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomwct Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 The world must keep these Muslims contained otherwise these attacks will continue.. If they visit any Terroristic Nations, such as, Syria, Iraq, Libya, Iran, ect they will lose their right to return to their adopted countries and lose their citizenship. RIP to the innocent victims.

Well stopping going to Muslim countries won't help much when so many countries have allowed Muslims to settle for generations. Ever been to Luton, England ?

True as long as PC prevents the government doing what would be necessary to prevent them. I'm watching the news as I write and it's on Sky News, Al Jazeera, and Fox ( Sky feed ). I assume it'll be on the other networks as well. Not just a short item- continuous feed. I hope this doesn't seem callous, but I don't remember such a response when 90 people were killed in Kabul just a few days ago....................................................

Trump tried to do something along those lines with his immigration stop on 6 countries, but guess what, everyone jumped up and down and said he couldn't do that. Will more incidents like this change their minds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
