Right now we want to break because we want to go to a nbc special report on the Parliament Incident on lockdown. Good day, were coming on the air because of one possibly two security situations unfolding right now in Central London. The report of shots fired outside of parliament. The house of commons was in session and the parliament was put on a lockdown. Lets get more now from kelly ko cobiella. It looks as though there are two separate incidents, one on the Westminster Bridge, the the houses of parliament across the tems and it now appears as though a car hit several people, a crowd in Westminster Bridge, at least five people were hit by that car. They are now being treated from what we understand. And a separate incident close to the houses of parliament very close to the houses of parliament where a man believed to have been armed with a knife threatened a Police Officer and was able to get into the confines of the parliamentary building. The leader of the house of commons has confirmed that that man was shot by police. That information has not yet been confirmed by met police. What were hearing on the official channels of met police is that theres a firearms incident in Central London that they are aware of this but they are not giving details. Lester, one more note to add, this would have been a busy day at parliament. Its wednesday, when the Prime Minister goes to the houses of parliament and addresses fellow mps and talks about the state of government and policies. We understand that the Prime Minister is safe and at work. Her location not being disclosed. Lester . Were looking at a picture right now Westminster Bridge and vehicles stopped right there. Is it your assessment right now that whatever happened is contained . We havent heard officially from met police whether they are looking for more than one suspect, whether they have stopped a suspect or whether anyone is in custody or has been stopped by any means, shot or otherwise. All we have in terms of suspects or attackers is this information from the leader of the house of commons who has said that one man has been shot at the houses of so again, lester, this leaves in question exactly what has happened on Westminster Bridge aside from a person in a car running into a crowd of people and injuring at least five. Thats where we stand as of now. Were looking at a live aerial view of the bridge itself where we believe that some people have been treated there. The camera now focusing in on what appears to be people on the ground around the double decker bus. How this relates to what happened on the grounds of parliament is not clear right now but you can clearly see activity, First Responders around that bus on the bridge. This bridge leads across the te temps and to parliament. Very close together here. Early reports are of the shots fired, there was a statement by the leader of the house of comm w was shot by armed police. Air ambulance is currently on the scene to remove casualties and then he notes in a statement further violence in the vicinity of the palace of westminster and hopes colleagues on all sides will certainly stay in touch with all of this. Bill neely is in london. What do you know . Yes, im in Central London at the moment. It does appear that this is some kind of terror incident because it does appear there were two incidents. In one a man got inside the grounds of westminster. Remember, this is the seat not just the British Government and parliament but of british democracy. He appears to have been armed with a knife. He was challenged by two Police Officers and it does appear that that is a sailant was shot by armed police. At around the same few hundred yards away, it seems that a vehicle is being described as a 4 x 4, a vehicle that would hit with considerable force, knocked down foblly five people on Westminster Bridge. There are pictures on social media and video on social media of some of the people lying on the ground. We dont know what condition they are in and so far the police have not given any details of injuries or indeed of appears to be a double incident. At the very center of british democracy and obviously london has been subject to terrorist attacks in the past and ones mind immediately goes to paris and brussels and the other European Countries that have suffered terrorism in recent years. So clearly a very serious incident or two incidents here. As we look at another live view, this is just the street that leads across the bridge there. You can see the Police Activity. We saw what appeared to be First Responders tending to individuals on the bridge itself that would be the second location. First location is the parliament itself where police took down an assailant there. No one officially that we know of has characterized this as a terrorist incident. Were certainly aware of what happened and past year in nice and also more recently during the Christmas Holiday in germany involving vehicle attacks and authorities around the world have tightened their security and have kept that in mind, the possibility of these kind of attacks. Here you see a very up on the sidewalk there and what appears to be medical attendants dealing with people, potential casualties there on the street and sidewalk leading to the its mid afternoon in london right now. If you just joining us, were watching two likely related but not clear situations unfold, there were shots fired outside much parliament and then a vehicle moved into a crowd of people on the bridge, Westminster Bridge. Its a very popular tourist location that people come to get a look at big ben. There you see as the camera widens out more of parliament, kelly, are you still with us . I am, yes. Is this being characterized beyond just two separate incidents . Well, officially they say they are dealing with two separate scenes here, lester and we do know this has been the fear of police for years. Theyve warned repeatedly t theyve talked about how many terrorist attacks they plots that they have foiled, not to say that this has been linked to terrorism, it absolutely has not at this point but it has that same significant as other types of attacks we have seen in other parts of europe. The question here is was this involving more than one person . Was there an attacker on the bridge, which is i think what you were getting to, was there an attacker on the bridge potentially on the loose . Was there someone else attacking parliament or is this the same person who is now been understand shot somewhere in or around the grounds of parliament. That we simply dont know at this point. Met police have said they have closed the westminster underground train station v thats if youve been to london and ridden the tube, that pops you right out at the corner of Parliament Square and takes you right up to the foot of far limit. So that may be an indication that perhaps they are either trying to keep people out of the area or they are trying to keep any possible suspects in or a combination of the two, lester. And there were reports again of a Police Officer stabbed at parliament. Police shooting the assailant there sean again, how many other people may be involved in this is unclear. A moment ago we saw a medical ambulance outside the grounds of parliament to take some of the casualties away. We have seen par medics on both sides of the bridges, First Responders, apparently tending to individuals. This is a pretty broad area because were see being activity on both sides of the bridge as well as in parliant clearly they are working several scenes here across the bridge. You can see the camera continues to move and people being tended to all along the bridge. Traffic obviously stopped. Were told that parliament was placed in a lockdown, house of commons was in session. It was quickly suspended at the sound of shots people reporting hearing shots outside parliament. That would have likely been the Police Officer responding to that assailant with a knife. Now you can see all across the bridge, different spots of Police Activity and what appears to be medical activity as well. If we have been to london, this is a place you have likely been to. It is a very, very popular stroll for tourists across the bridge and who want to get a view of parliament and the temz, it would have been a little after transpired. Heeshz heres a view as we look on the bridge, paramedics appeared to have set up a triage area there. We dont have a number of injured or casualties but we are just watching this play out and obviously, unfolding situation. Police and metropolitan police and london getting a handle on this. Obviously security throughout london would be on high alert as investigators try to get a handle on how broad this may be or whether this was limited to what were seeing here. These two incidents in and around parliament. Im just watching as that camera moves in. Its hard to get an idea. We heard reports that a vehicle, a truck may have plowed into the crowd. The fact were seeing people treated h intervals along the bridge would perhaps suggest it could have been a moving vehicle but we dont have confirmation right now. The report again, parliament in lockdown. Assailant stabbed a Police Officer, shot by police and then police also responding to this incident on the Westminster Bridge that has not clearly been identified as to what happened here. You can see the enormous amounts of ambulances and police and tourist vehicles sto
