CNN: UK Police Investigating a ‘Firearms Incident’ Near the British Parliament

‘There’s ongoing concern about terror plots, of course’

EXCERPT:

FOSTER: "We heard the story from our colleagues at the parliamentary press there in the Houses of Parliament, you can see it just to the right of the shot there. There’s been some sort of incident on Westminster Bridge which stretches from the Houses of Parliament over to the bridge south to London. There’s been some sort of firearms incident. We’re having to rely here on information from the official sources. I’ve recently been in briefings, you know, in terms of serious incidents happening in London, and they want us to rely on the sources coming to us from the police. And all they’re telling us at the moment is there’s been some sort of firearms incident. Having said that, very reliable sources in the political reporting press based just yards from the scene that you’re looking at now are saying there is a serious incident unfolding. The area has been completely cleared. From what you can see and what I can see, Wolf, the area is in lockdown. So this is a very serious incident just by looking at the reaction that there's been there."
