‘Terror attacks’ strike London Bridge, Borough Market

LONDON, ENGLAND - JUNE 03: At least six people were killed in in attacks late as a van mowed down pedestrians on London Bridge before attackers then stabbed victims at nearby Borough Market. Health officials said at least 30 victims were taken to area hospitals for treatment. Three male suspects were killed by police within eight minutes after the first report of the attacks, according to Assistant Police Commissioner Mark Rowley, who said authorities are treating it as a "terror incident" as they proceed with a massive operation in central London. One officer sustained serious non-life-threatening injuries when he responded to the attack, Rowley said. Mayor Sadiq Khan condemned the “barbaric acts” he described as a “deliberate and cowardly attack on innocent Londoners and visitors to our city enjoying their Saturday night”. Reports of a stabbing in Vauxhall was later determined to be unrelated to the London Bridge and Borough Market. Prime Minister Theresa May suspended her election campaign and returned to the U.K. capital and will chair a high-level security meeting Sunday. “The terrible incident in London is being treated as a potential act of terrorism,” she said in a statement.
