Police
cars, ambulances and helicopters have arrived at the scene, according
to various eyewitness reports on Twitter.
The
Metropolitan Police said they will release further information after
making sure it is “accurate,” following social media reports that
there was an attacker with a knife and gunfire heard in the area.
Conflicting
accounts claimed that between one and three attackers jumped out of
the van after it hit people and proceeded to stab people.
At
least five people were injured on the bridge, the BBC reported. It
was not immediately clear how grave the injuries were.
Police
