an attack on parliaments, freedom and democracy everywhere. the acting deputy commissioner for the met police, mark rowley is in charge of the investigation. late into the london evening he spoke to reporters outside new scotland yard. today, in westminster we saw tragic events unfold and our thoughts are with those who lost loved ones, who were injured, and all those affected by this attack. one of those who died today was a police officer — pc keith palmer — a member of our parliamentary and diplomatic protection command. keith — aged 48 — had 15 years‘ service and was a husband and a father. he was someone who left for work today expecting to return home at the end of his shift and he had every right to expect that would happen. i can also now confirm three members

of the public also lost their lives in this attack. specially trained family liaison officers will be deployed to support them. and i confirmed earlier, the suspected attacker was shot dead by an armed officer — therefore meaning we now have five people in total who have died. i will not comment at this stage on the identity of the attacker, but our working assumption that he was inspired by international terrorism. also, at this stage, but it may change — we believe approximately a0 people were injured, some with serious injuries, including three police officers, two of whom are in a serious condition. our investigation continues and moves at a fast pace this evening. we will work throughout the night. we will work throughout the night. we have hundreds of offices on this investigation and they are focusing

on the suspect‘s motivation, prep oration and his associates. we are fore nsically oration and his associates. we are forensically and examination in a collocated crime scene and was all investigations of this nature it will take some time to do the painstaking work necessary for them recovering all the elements. officers are taking statements of people who were nearby and we are seizing and examining cctv. i can also report that the lockdown of parliament has concluded and we are working to reduce the areas cordoned off. i would like to thank the public and parliamentarians to their patients and assistant as we carried out detailed examinations and work in the area. as the prime minister said early on, the threat level has been at severe for some time and this level is not changing. but we have enhanced the scale of our policing operations at present to

protect communities across the country. as we continue to investigate the horrific events of today we would like to reassure the public that police and partners will do everything possible to protect them. as a precautionary measure, over the next few days we have increased the number of officers on duty, armed and unarmed to provide a reassuring presence. this will continue for as long as is necessary. terrorists have a clear aim. that is, to create discord, distrust and create fear. the police stand with communities in the uk and will take action against anybody who seeks to undermine society, especially when their crimes are motivated by hate. we must recognise now that our muslim community will feel anxious at this time, given the past behaviour of right—wing groups and we will continue to work with community leaders over the next few days. it is essential that we remain vigilant at all so to work together,

to unite against those who threaten and intimidate and cause fear. we ask the public to be alert and report any suspicious activity to the police, calling the terrorism hotline or dialling 999. today is an incredibly sad and sombre day. especially for the metropolitan police service and everyone who was affected. but it is only right that ifinish by mentioning affected. but it is only right that i finish by mentioning the affected. but it is only right that ifinish by mentioning the pride i feel in this western brave response from our offices, especially from those who without fear for their own safety confronted the terrorists. that was the academe activity commissionerfor the met that was the academe activity commissioner for the met police. this sort of atrocity has been long feared and despite the success of

the security services in foiling a series of plots there have also been warnings of the likelihood of an attack. so how have people he reacted 7 attack. so how have people he reacted? our home editor reports on the responsible london to the attacks. —— response of london to the attacks. outside, authorities pledged physical reassurance. police just being there to make people feel safe. and that is how people felt. a busker set up on the spot in trafalgar square as future land took to the stage this evening. chinatown thronged with people. if london was in shock, the crowds of locals and tourists suggested that they were determined to ignore any anxieties. we had just arrived in london as it was happening so it was worrying

that it has not stopped us. was happening so it was worrying that it has not stopped uslj was happening so it was worrying that it has not stopped us. i have faith that we will be ok. because i come from turkey i am used to these attacks in my country. once we let ourfamilies know attacks in my country. once we let our families know we were ok, attacks in my country. once we let ourfamilies know we were ok, we attacks in my country. once we let our families know we were ok, we are on holiday, so... for years, londoners had been warned that the question was not if but when another attack would come. they had read the signs and heard the advice about suspicious activity and unattended packages, the possibility of being caught up in random violence crosses people's mind regular. it is part of living in a big city. it has been expected for a long time and it is amazing that they have not been more attacks in london. the service must be doing a good job. i am shaky because we are close, just over the river but it was bound to happen out some stage, i feel. river but it was bound to happen out some stage, ifeel. fluorescent flashers and wailing sirens remind those who were in london in 2005 of
