Shots fired outside Houses of Parliament

DM is going with 'Asian knifeman' and its comments know exactly what's going on, of course.
Does anyone understand if he was shot dead or just shot?
 
Any confirmation that people jumped off the bridge to avoid being hit by the car, that's being reported here
It looks like the pictures sky showed is of a person who has jumped off the bridge. The person has obviously got broken leg(s). Quite shocking pictures to be honest.
 
well thats a separate thread. i am watching all these cops heading towards the scene thus leaving other parts under-policed and vulnerable.

There will be more cops on duty now than an hour ago. The number of police within London twiddling their thumbs in McDonalds or their offices will be much lower than normal. The ones currently in Westminster can easily be redeployed elsewhere if needed. Police cover could therefore be better than usual for all areas.
 
And the CTSFOs are from a very different pool than normal cops, and them deploying to the area doesn't deplete day to day policing in other areas.

Anyway, good to see some on here are experts on managing this kind of thing. :rolleyes:
yeh which is why i factored out 8000 cops - cos there's safer transport, traffic, a range of specialist units, staff officers, senior officers, cops in courts, diploplod, aquaplod etc.
 
reports here now saying that 2 people in plain clothes (not uniformed police) open fire and shot someone who had attacked a policeman and was running into Parliament:confused:
