At least one person has been shot outside the Houses of Parliament following reports he was holding a knife.

A loud bang was also said to have been heard before armed police approached the man. Two people reported injured.

Police confirmed a shooting incident has occurred, resulting in the House of Commons being suspended.

At least 12 people are said to have been injured in a separate incident on nearby on Westminster Bridge.

Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started.
They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.
Don’t forget that.

Was it a gunman? The UK paper I read called it a "knifeman".

The knifeman was shot, and it's possible he first stabbed the gunman, precipitating his later death

The knifeman stabbed a cop to death and was then shot by another cop.

reported he had 2 knives - maybe that's the other one ( but best not go there :sarcasm ) funnily enough he was shot by a Ministerial bodyguard who just happened to be there rather than a deliberately positioned sentry fwiw
