police dealing with incident on London bridge.,

[Notters]

Are you thinking of Tower Bridge?

No. London Bridge is Falling Down - surely one of the most famous nursery rhymes. Sing it to my daughter most nights.

Other reports of gunshots and stabbings. Reported on the Mail website so hopefully inaccurate.

Sky reporting above

Because I wouldn't describe London Bridge as "internationally known" whereas the iconic Tower Bridge would be.

I agree that Tower Bridge is more iconic, except that the name 'London Bridge' is a famous name and of course immortalised in the nursery rhyme. I should have quoted [MENTION=159]Stumpy Tim[/MENTION] who was wondering about the location and timing.

Well. Some old boy on Sky is suggesting he heard it.


Edit: OK, another chap now saying- by means of hearsay- that he's heard there was gunfire too.

But on the other hand Tower Bridge - 120 years old, London Bridge - 2,000 years old.

I hope so much that the gunshots were all from Police guns.

Not just the Mail. Lots of separate reports on social media saying the same thing

Maybe, but being reported on ticker!

How awful. I hope that the reports of three men with knives attacking those knocked down are inaccurate. Absolutely heartbreaking.

If that is true I am once again utterly shocked.

Horrendous

Members of the public were told by police to “run as fast as they could” westbound.

But almost certainly most on a hearsay basis. Social media is fantastic for Chinese whispers.

Not saying it's not happened, but personally, I'm loathe to take everything as gospel at these early stages.

I bet these ****s were on some kind of watch list...

Witness on BBC News talked about a stabbing in Borough Market pub, followed by shooting. May not be terrorist related?

I can't ever imagine finding myself at the heart of something like this, and my first instinct being to ring Sky News.

Indeed. I'm watching sky news and they've spoken to several witnesses and only one of them claims to have heard gunfire. Which he said went on for "quite a few minutes", and "other people would mistake it for fireworks". They've asked all their witnesses and none of the others heard anything. No one else has heard it (despite it going on for quite a few minutes). None of them have heard fireworks.

It's OK though. People are 'praying for peace' and 'praying for the victims'

Come on God. Get ya finger out.
