[News] London Bridge Incident

[RossyG]

It does look like they had him down but somebody made a police command decision just to shoot the suspect.

Could’ve detonated a suicide bomb so good decision.

And those members of the public who rushed him should all get medals.

Just looks like umpteen wankers all pointing out that the photo shows Tower Bridge not London Bridge

Yes, they mentioned that as well. The last vigilante was pulled away, before 2 shots were pumped into the stabber.

LBC said social media videos show the terrorist being killed.

I’m assuming he must of had a trigger and vest to bring the cop onto to tap him?

One the tweets I linked a few posts ago shows it (Mods please take down if deemed inappropriate)

Whoever the very first person to charge the knife man was, they're an incredibly brave person.

I fear trouble ahead for the police.

The country can't exist without a lorry bringing goods into the country.

LBC's been brilliant on this, still is now. They've had genuine eyewitnesses on and security experts.

They're all saying that as the public were tugged away, the (still aggressive) aggressor lifted an arm that could've indicated he had or was pretending to have a viable device. The police training is to eliminate the protagonist in those circumstances.

Lorry could have had nothing to do with it. Maybe the driver panicked and slammed his breaks on and passers by in the general melee thought it was part of the incident and it was reported as such.

Police who made decision are heros. Police officer who shot the suspect should be honoured.

Yes, to run towards someone they suspect may have a suicide vest on is incredibly brave.

I would suggest he was possibly as a result of a police request told to go across several lanes, to prevent another vehicle driving down that should not.

I would think this was the case, and who knows wires may have been visible to those close to the person, and the police are told like you say close the situation down, shooting someone in the legs would not stop someone flicking or pressing a switch/detonator even if it is not real, you can not take that risk.

Those Americans are always getting it wrong.

On the flip side, some welcome overtime before Christmas.
