So far, everyone's in agreement that it's horrific and we're simply waiting on further news to come through aren't we? Speaking of the internet generally. People on here tend to be (largely) pretty good when tragic incidents like this happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicsmac Posted 22 March 2017 Share Posted 22 March 2017 Sounds pretty horrible, but also sounds like the police response was good and stopped it from being a lot worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babylon Posted 22 March 2017 Share Posted 22 March 2017 Just saw a couple of photos from inside Westminster, one of them working on two people on the ground. Then one looks like they've been covered up, the other (The black/brown fella) being loaded in the back of an ambulance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkon84 Posted 22 March 2017 Share Posted 22 March 2017 More witness reports coming through now too Quote Witnesses have described seeing a middle-aged man carrying a knife and running towards the Palace of Westminster... Jayne Wilkinson said: "We were taking photos of Big Ben and we saw all the people running towards us, and then there was an Asian guy in about his 40s carrying a knife about seven or eight inches long. "And then there were three shots fired, and then we crossed the road and looked over. The man was on the floor with blood. "He had a lightweight jacket on, dark trousers and a shirt. "He was running through those gates, towards Parliament, and the police were chasing him." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopfkino Posted 22 March 2017 Share Posted 22 March 2017 Sat in uni roughly a mile away, slightly unnerving. Know a few in halls on the other side of Westminster Bridge so hoping they're okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkon84 Posted 22 March 2017 Share Posted 22 March 2017 Amid the horrific nature of this terrorist attack and those (very sadly) injured/murdered, I think it's worth taking a moment to appreciate just how effective and quickly our police/security forces reacted and neutralised the threat. Things could have been a hell of a lot worse had they not responded so well. Well done to those men and women. EDIT: I'll add in the paramedics and ambulance crews too. The first one arriving on the bridge to treat people within 6 minutes of the first call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one arriving on the bridge to treat people within 6 minutes of the first call. Saw this also Can only commend the emergency services for their reaction. Also to the immediate police response to stop the attacker causing more harm. Been refreshing this thread among other news sources all day, obviously thoughts go to all those effected.
