One suspect who was shot dead by police "Number of people" was wounded. Incident was classified as terrorism.
Police shot dead at London Bridge after stabbing "a number" of people in central London, a terror suspect wearing a hoax suicide vest.

The inquiry has now been taken over by counter-terror police after Scotland Yard announced that the incident was being handled as a terror attack.

Scene clips reportedly showed witnesses throwing the suspect to the ground, picking up his knife and pinning him down before police interfered.

Mayor Sadiq Khan of London reported that some of those stabbed were "seriously wounded" as he applauded the "breathtaking heroism" of bystanders "who literally ran to risk" not knowing what they faced.
At this point, the condition of the injured is uncertain. 

Neil Basu, the counter-terrorism head of the United Kingdom, held a press conference at New Scotland Yard just before 4.30pm to update the attack. 

He declined to answer journalists ' questions, insisting that he headed to Boris Johnson's brief.
"Police were called to an establishment where a stabbing took place and, it seems, as a result a number of people were stabbed and one man was shot," he says.

"We believed that the person shot may actually have been the assailant you've seen in some of those graphic videos. What's unclear is the reason for the argument." Scotland Yard, British police, say they're treating this as if it's terror-related, but they also say the circumstances remain unclear. It is important to remember as this happens because there are many other reasons in London why there may be a stabbing, particularly gang violence.
