Per Sky News, perp described as a middle-aged, Asian male. Asian in the UK means Pakistani or Bangladeshi, usually. Looks like the perp ran down folks along the bridge, then went to Parliament.

BBC: A police officer has been stabbed in the Houses of Parliament in central London, Commons Leader David Lidington has said.

He told MPs the “alleged assailant was shot by armed police” following a “serious” incident.

There was “chatter” several days ago about some “happenings” this week, nothing specific if I remember correctly; of course you can say that any week something will happen based on anonymous posters to a website. Prayers for all involved and I hope they get all the perps involved.

one person on bridge clearly appears dead, seeing the body motionless from aerial view, lying in very awkward and unnatural position — can’t imagine that the person I’m looking at is still alive....

one witness says at least 8-10 ppl run over by car on bridge, then driver drove to front of Parliament (Westminster)

may all be one attack, not clear if there is more than one attacker

Reuters: An assailant was shot outside the British parliament by armed police, the leader of the House of Commons said on Wednesday after loud bangs were heard and a Reuters photographer saw at least a dozen injured people on a nearby bridge.

A parliamentary official earlier said two people had been shot outside parliament and the building was in lockdown. The House of Commons session was suspended and members of parliament who were in the chamber were told to remain there.

Police said they had been called to an incident at Westminster Bridge, officers were on the scene and it was being treated as a firearms incident.

Are all the cops in London armed with loaded firearms, or just the ones guarding Parliament? Anyone know?

I wish they would say South Asian and North Asian so as to distinguish the Indians with a dot from the Chinese with the, you know, slanty eyes.

From what I’ve seen, some of the cops in England have guns and some do not. The ones that do tend to have the automatic variety and come ready for full tactical action. So yeah, an individual bobby may not have a gun, but they are always nearby. And you may also be being watched on camera, as you probably know.

Several dead. Two bodies with sheets over them. And another pic of a body with the face blurred out. RIP
