FULL TITLE: Chilling footage of rush-hour Westminster terror attack shows car 'intentionally mowing down at least 15 cyclists at 50mph' before smashing into security barriers - as police quiz suspect 'from the Midlands'

his is the horrifying moment a Ford Fiesta swerved to hit at least 15 cyclists and pedestrians at up to 50mph before narrowly missing two police officers as it ploughed into barriers outside the Houses of Parliament today.

The terror suspect, a black man in his late twenties now refusing to co-operate with police, is said to have been identified as living in the Midlands and was not known to MI5 or police

Today he looked dazed as he was dragged from the smoking silver Ford Fiesta by around a dozen armed officers who had their rifles trained on him.

A 'loud bang' followed by screams echoed around Parliament Square at 7.30am this morning and CCTV uncovered by the BBC shows the car swerve the wrong way down the road and 'intentionally' veer through crowds before smashing into a security barrier.

Two uniformed police officers manning the checkpoint designed to withstand a high speed lorry attack are shown diving away and detectives are investigating if they were the true targets of the suspected terror attack.

Three people were injured and one female cyclist is being treated for serious but not life-threatening injuries, which MailOnline understands is a broken hip.

Black man from the Midlands

They don’t say he is a Muslim but I say it is highly likely.

Police withheld bombshell report revealing how gangs of Muslim men were grooming more than 100 schoolgirls as young as 13 in case it inflamed racial tensions ahead of General Election .

When are the Britain’s going to demand that these animals be deported?

I think one of the strategies being employed by the terrorist groups is to build a false long term persona of a “mental disorder” in their jihadis, so when they commit their calculated acts of terror ( i think they would like to think it is meant to convince the infidels to convert))...they will be treated as a mental defective and not the evil,calculating,eternally hopeless, followers of a perpetually violent religion

“...a black man in his late twenties now refusing to co-operate with police...”

Too bad he wasn’t captured by Russian police. By now they would have broken every bone in his body.

Britain is finished.

Clearly, to be consistent, liberals should campaign for banning these “Attack Fiestas”.

Sorry, nothing chilling about it. It didn’t happen where I live. The Brits don’t really care, either.

Sounds “anti-immigrant” and anti-”latinex” (whatever that means)

I hope they only ban the Fiestas that are fully semi-auto.

I don’t understand the fuss. Terror attacks are part and parcel of living in a big city.

We can rule out Islam as the cause. We will never know what caused him to do this.
