Streatham shooting: Man 'shot dead in the street' as police declare terror-related incident

[PC777]

8 miles on a bus in London... Lol when did you move in?

It will be an angry remainer 100% guarantee.

What the hell are you talking about?

I grew up in London, I've been here over 35 years. I've seen all the changes first hand, and many people take the bus longer journeys than that for all kinds of reasons, especially that route across South London.

I choose not to have a car in London even though I easily could as I'm lucky enough to work from home and run my own business, I get to cycle and keep fit and take public transport as a choice.

Take your arrogant assumptions elsewhere.

It just has to be a far right terrorist, that's ail I hear about on here

 

[TheVoice]

Well whoever it may be they have said he was under active surveillance already so I guess they knew it was terror related immediately.

To clarify, a former counter-terrorism officer has suggested there may have been some surveillance and MAST deployed on the basis of the sort of response that was seen; MPS haven't confirmed anything yet. Equally it may be that they were already deployed elsewhere.

Within three hours, by the looks of GMP's press release.

No idea about Thornton Heath, doesn't ring a bell.

So that's 3 hours vs...what...minutes for this one.

 

[labbby]

just been confirmed he was under active surveillance

should read my pop up news alert better, ignore above just experts believe he was.

 

[Skunkworks]

Hearing rumours he had a fake bomb vest.

Three hours vs one hour, different forces involved and will have different procedures and priorities. Keep trying to make something out of nothing though.

Okm8, thx for the life story.

Yeah there was some mention on the news earlier of him having something on or wrapped round his torso. Would also explain why Met EOD vehicles are there.

Why not?

 

[Efour]

Why not?

Cos I don't have 2h to kill.
Yes it's a joke. Let's all get fake outraged.
Sometimes I just forget just how **** you have it south of the river.

To clarify, the Met have said armed officers were close by to the suspect as part of a "proactive Counter Terrorism operation".

No need to be cheeky, they hadn't issued that statement at the time you initially posted.

Incredible... Restaurant worker asks if they can have half hour before evacuating.

I'm not being cheeky, just clarifying.

I just wish they'd stop these people before they went all stabby.

Inappropriate responses are to be expected from people in a situation they've never been in before. They've been told to disrupt their life and haven't prepared for that vs their existing priorities.

Meanwhile it's business as usual for the police officer to convey instructions to disrupt current activities.

I just wish they'd stop these people before they went all stabby.

Pre-crime punishment is an excellent way to reinforce ideas of harassment and oppression.
