LONDON ATTACK – At least four people died and some 20 were wounded in London on Wednesday, in two attacks committed by the same perpetrator. There are two Romanian citizens among the people wounded and they have been rushed to the hospital for treatment, the Romanian Foreign Ministry announced.



In the first attack, a car mounted the pavement and ploughed into pedestrians crossing the busy Westminster Bridge beside Londons Big Ben. The French Foreign Ministry has announced that three French students were among the wounded ones. After this first attack, the driver of the car rushed at the gates in front of the Houses of Parliament and stabbed a policeman to death. The alleged assailant was shot and killed by armed police.



Prime Minister Theresa May, who was in the Parliament building during the incident, called for an emergency Cabinet session. Authorities say the attack is being treated as a ‘terrorist incident’. In reaction to the attack, European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker said: “My thoughts are with London. Together we will never cease to prove that love triumphs over hate, tolerance over fear.”
