moments ago, i spoke with american tourist brad myers who was at the scene overnight. brad, thank you for joining us. i know you're on a trip of a lifetime across europe. you happened to be on london bridge overnight. can you tell us what you saw and heard? >> sure. i was taking pictures on the london bridge, viewing the tower bridge, which is a picturesque bridge on the thames river. i went to the river walk, on the north side of the london bridge. went down the stairs. about two minutes later, i heard a loud noise behind me. and saw a van on the pedestrian sidewalk where i had just been two minutes previously. it was going through the pedestrian crowd that was there. it continued on down. i saw at least one person jump into the water in order to avoid it. saw people trying to get out of the way. and possibly vehicles were hit, as well. >> a horrifying scene. can you talk about the aftermath? did you go back up there after you saw what had happened? >> i walked back up the stairs. saw that at least two people were being attended to. by at least three or four passers by
