United Kingdom police make two more ‘significant arrests’ linked to London attack

While there was no evidence of further threats, Rowley said, “you will understand our determination is to find out if either he acted totally alone, inspired perhaps by terrorist propaganda, or if others encouraged, supported or directed him”.

Two people remain in a critical condition and one person is suffering from life-threatening injuries. “Searches at addresses in Brighton and south east London have concluded”.

Another person, a woman, was arrested and released on bail.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan led the tributes in a heavily policed Trafalgar Square, vowing “Londoners will never be cowed by terrorism” after a 52-year-old UK-born man went on the rampage at Westminster.

Thousands of people gathered at Trafalgar Square Thursday night to light candles, hold flowers and show solidarity one day after a 52-year-old man killed four people and injured almost 30 in a terrorist attack just steps away from Parliament.

Police have also seized 2,700 items as part of the investigation.

Mark Rowley also appealed to the public for information about the killer, who was also known as Adrian Elms but was using the name Khalid Masood at the time of the attack. British police say a seriously injured woman was rescued from the water, but have given no further details. His first conviction was in 1983 for criminal damage and his last conviction was in December 2003 for possession of a knife.

Investigators are probing Masood’s possible links to a wider extremist network, saying that although there was no “prior intelligence” of his intentions he had been the subject of a terror investigation by MI5.

The second floor flat and surrounding area were cordoned off. “They came and arrested three men”.

And according to Dominic Grieve, Chair of Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee, security services have actually managed to stop 12 terror plots in the last 18 months.

Britain’s top anti-terrorism officer, Mark Rowley, said police had nine people in custody after the attack on Wednesday which killed five people including the assailant. He killed Palmer before another officer shot him to death.

A father and husband, he was an unarmed member of the Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Squad who had served for 15 years.

Footage emerged on Friday showing the prime minister uncertain of which way to go as she was ushered out by her protection officers.

United Kingdom police are combing through “massive amounts of computer data” and more than 2,500 items seized in searches across the country as they look for clues about why a British-born man became radicalized and launched a deadly attack on Parliament.

She was a British national whose mother was Spanish, the Spanish foreign ministry said. “We will remember the exceptional bravery of our police, security and emergency services”.

In Brussels to commemorate the one-year anniversary of attacks on the main airport and a metro station, Juncker said “the fact that exactly on the same day something similar happened in London, and to London, is really putting me in the situation of someone who does not have. enough words to express how I am deeply feeling”.

The woman, who gave her name only as Martine, said: “She is very shocked by what she saw”.

Armed officers, some in plain clothes and wearing balaclavas, swarmed around the yard just feet from where MPs had earlier attended Prime Minister’s Questions.

Nevertheless, the pavements on the bridge over the Thames river which leads to the iconic Big Ben tower has nearly no protective devices, and the gate through which MPs walk or drive their cars into Parliament remains strangely vulnerable.

A woman with serious injuries was rescued from the river Thames which flows directly past the Houses of Parliament.
