"LONDON (AFX) - Police officers at Liverpool Street Station told AFX News they are investigating the explosions on the London Underground as a terrorist incident, even though official statements still point to the possibility of a power surge.

A rail union official said there has been at least one explosive device on the underground, according to Sky News.

Police added that they have received reports of 'multiple explosions' in London, according to Scotland Yard, Sky News said.

Union sources report explosions on three separate buses across London.

One explosion happened at Edgware Road and there are suggestions of two other explosions at King's Cross and Aldgate. Union sources said they had been given the information by at least one senior Tube manager.
