a lot of speculation that the moment and the police are not saying if this was a terrorist incident or if they're treating it rather as a terrorist incident or not but we understand that a man has been detained but not arrested can you explain that for us. well i think the investigation is still sort of ongoing on the ground i think is the initial stage that the police have made as a detention and obviously there was somebody involved and they were now trying to find out the man's identity and then they were they will find out if this man is going to be charged or not which is the next up now the natural history museum is one of the most popular tourist attractions in london just describe the area for us well it's
