[DailyMail] - The men, described as being 'of Mediterranean origin', drove the white van at 50mph across the bridge
- They mowed down up to 20 pedestrians, then jumped out of the van shouting 'this is for Allah', and began 'randomly stabbing' people
- One horrified woman said she saw three people with what appeared to be their throats cut at London Bridge
- Attackers, wearing fake suicide vests, then stabbed people with 12-inch hunting knives at busy pubs and bars in nearby Borough Market
- The terrorists were shot and killed by armed police in Borough Market within eight minutes of the first call
- A man in a black tracksuit was arrested in Vauxhall in an unrelated stabbing on Saturday night

| Summary update as of 1:50 p.m. EDT: |
- 12 arrested this morning in an apartment building in Barking, east London, four of them women in traditional Islamic clothing
- One of the apartments belonged to one of the dead terrorists, suggesting the police have identified them; neighbours described a father of two small children known to the neighbours as ""Abbs"
- Another raid at East Ham may or may not be connected
- Four police among the wounded, one or two considered serious
- One of the wounded police held off the attackers armed only with a baton until he was knifed in the face
- There wil be a temporary halt in campaigning out of respect for the casualties, but at this point no talk of postponing the election itself.
