BBC News have said there were also gunshots reported, but they're not committing to saying anything for sure until all the pieces have been put together, luckily, it doesn't seem like anyone has been killed so far.

According to what I read the driver of the truck hit some pedestrians then stabbed a police officer to death then there were shots fired by an armed police officer. But not sure what all info will be available once they know more. This was from my local news here in nor cal.
Whatever happened is bs and it's so sad shit like this keeps happening.

You're in London right? Is it true about another incident at Borough Market? My friends Family are out somewhere round there tonight and now she can't get hold of them. I've just offered to drive over and sit with her but she's not replying, I might just set off soon anyway. |

They responded to another scene at Borough Market but they aren't sure if the attacks are linked. 😞 |

It's getting worse! 3 separate incidents, all involving men stabbing people in Borough Market, London bridge and Vauxhall.

MH thinks there's gonna be a bomb since law enforcement is occupied in 3 areas. I hope he's not right.

Fuck Donald Trump. Instead of saying anything about London or our wounded people, he's whining about getting the travel ban back. FUCK you Trump.

BBC is updating regularly. www.bbc.com/news/live/uk-40147014Unconfirmed eyewitness reports that there are multiple attackers in the Borough Market incident. One of my colleagues is on a year-long exchange to Canada this year and I can't imagine how awful it must feel to know these things are happening in her hometown where all of her friends and family are without having a great way to get in touch. |

And so far at least 7 people confirmed dead with armed police shouting at others to run, 2 out of the 5 (reported) attackers have been shot down.
This is Horrific. @zweber If you're anywhere near, please stay safe!

They showed pictures of one of the attackers with canisters strapped to his chest. Not confirmed but... that's another suicide bomber attempt.

A girlfriend of mine from NYC originally, now lives in London with her British husband, is in NYC for the weekend. Her H stayed in London. I want to text her and see if everything's okay but I don't even know what to say. I can't imagine what she's feeling right now.
