Ugh it's not over. This is scary.

Scotland Yard have confirmed that they have shot a man at stockwell station. Skynews are still claiming its a suicide bomber.

Fox News is reporting that the guy was shot dead.

A pity if he's dead. But it just shows how quickly the net has closed

Skynews are reporting that he has been shot. The rumour mill is running now and some stations are claiming this is going to be another day of attacks

BBC saying that he was shot 5 times!!

Scotland Yard have confirmed that their officers have shot a person at Stockwell.

news.bbc.co.uk...
Mr Whitby, told BBC News: "I saw an Asian guy run onto the train hotly pursued by three plain-clothes police officers.

"One of them was carrying a black handgun - it looked like an automatic - they pushed him to the floor, bundled on top of him and unloaded five shots into him."

A distraught eyewitness interviewed stated that police close in pursuit pushed the victim to the ground and unloaded five shot into the man. This less that 10 feet away form the witness.

eyewitness reported seeing something bulky under his coat

Hopefully, this is over now and no more drama for the day.

Well, there must of been serious threat because police dont just shot 5 times into someone.

...police with "shoot kill" instructions. Sounds like Los Angeles...considering the last two attacks, I can't see this being just one supposed bomber. Where there is one, there is more...

There must have been a compelling reason for this outcome,

as i doubt the London Police or security forces are prone to
reacting on supposition or profiling or antimuslim backlash
...which is bound to be suggested by spin-meisters...

POLICE SURROUND A MOSQUE IN E.LONDON!!!

Why hide in a mosque? lets hope this doesnt end up a hostage siege inside the mosque
