The Sun – At least two people have been killed after terror returned to the heart of London today. The victims were among at least 12 slashed by the suspected “Islamic” knifeman wearing a fake suicide vest who unleashed a shocking rampage at London Bridge. Terrifying footage showed the suspect was shot dead twice at the scene after hero bystanders wrestled him to the ground. The attack comes 15 months after the capital was gripped by terror when a man plowed into cyclists outside the Houses of Parliament in August 2018 –
and two years on from the London Bridge terror attack that killed eight in 2017. Security sources tonight said Islamic terrorism was now “a key line of inquiry”. The BBC reported two members of the public were killed in this afternoon’s horror. Neil Basu, the head of UK counter-terrorism policing, confirmed a number of people had been injured in the stabbing attack this afternoon. Assistant Commissioner Basu said: “We believe a device was strapped to the body of the suspect was a hoax device.” He said that while authorities were keeping an “open mind”, it had been declared as a terrorist incident.
