LONDON (AP) – Police specialists are collecting evidence in the heart of London after a series of attacks described as terrorism killed six people and injured more than 30 others.
Prime Minister Theresa May planned to chair an emergency security Cabinet session Sunday to deal with the crisis.
The assault began when a van veered off the road and barreled into pedestrians on London Bridge. Witnesses say three men fled the van with large knives and attacked people at bars and restaurants in nearby Borough Market.
More than 30 victims are being treated at London hospitals and a number of others suffered less serious injuries.
The Metropolitan Police force declared the attacks “terrorist incidents.” Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley says while they believe all the attackers were killed, the investigation continues.
