Police advising anyone on Oxford Street to stay/go inside shops, which is concerning
Stay safe everyone
Really?
reports of shots fired, treating it as a terrorist incident

“as it if were” a terrorist incident sounds slightly different to treating it as an actual terrorist incident
My initial thoughts, but @mildmanneredjanitor is right it’s too early.
Hope it isn’t as bad as feared. Thoughts go out to anyone there, anyone nearby or anyone who knows someone in the area.
I think that was TFL’s wording by the looks of things.
Was going to head that way an hour and a half or so ago, thankfully headed north back to Euston Rd.
Hope everyone is safe and all loved ones are as well.
I very nearly went there tonight (so about now). Hope everyone’s ok.
Yeah apparently called out because of shots on the tube but no evidence yet, still that tube’s so so busy that easily could’ve escalated into utter chaos
“To date police have not located any trace of any suspects, evidence of shots fired or causalities.”
I assume causalities isn’t a typo, or is it?
isn’t “reports of shots fired” evidence of shots fired then?
It is evidence that people have reported shots fired. Not that shots have been fired.
Typo I think. BTP have reported one person was slightly injured leaving the station, but otherwise no reported casualties of any kind.
Tube stations reopening soon, no casualties I think.
Yeah all seems fine
To France?!
Hey DB.
Hope you’re okay down there. I know it’s stressful and there’s a lot of people, but it seems that it was likely a false alarm.
If you have a smartphone, try and get citymapper on it and let that get you to St. Pancras.
I’m not going anyway now. Enjoy France!(?)
