Terrorism struck at the heart of London, police said Sunday, after a vehicle veered off the road and mowed down pedestrians on London Bridge and gunshots rang out amid reports of knife attacks at nearby Borough Market. The force initially said officers were also responding to a reported third incident, in the Vauxhall area of London. About two hours after the first reports of an incident, television images showed people walking away from the London Bridge area with their hands on their heads. The Sun newspaper, whose offices are beside London Bridge, reported hearing explosions about three hours after the attacks began. After that attack, Britain's official threat level from terrorism was raised to "critical," meaning an attack may be imminent.
