At least 4 people, including a London police officer who was stabbed, were killed during a terror incident that saw as many as a dozen people run over outside London's Parliament building on Wednesday.
Police said a vehicle mowed down pedestrians on London's Westminster Bridge, leaving more than a dozen with injuries described as catastrophic.
Around the same time Wednesday, a knife-wielding attacker stabbed a police officer and was shot on the grounds outside Britain's Parliament, sending the compound into lockdown.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility and it was not clear if there was more than one attacker.
The assailant -- who looked to be in his 30s or 40s -- was carrying a seven to eight-inch knife, witnesses told Sky News.
It is unclear if the person shot by police and the driver are the same person.
London police confirmed there are a "number of casualties, including police officers."
Sources told Sky News that up to three officers were injured.
Scotland Yard Commander BJ Harrington told reporters there are multiple injuries, including police officers, but said authorities "cannot confirm numbers or the nature of these injuries."
"We received a number of different reports which included aperson in the river, a car in collision with pedestrians and aman armed with a knife," he added.
