we're talking with mark roberts. he's a witness on a scene of something that happened within the last hour. he described for us a van going at a high rate of speed coming from the south and plowing into a number of people on the bridge, people who had stopped to take pictures and continuing to drive forward, one person flying into the air several feet, eventually mark roberts says the van ran into a bus and it was still on the bridge at the time. mark, you also mentioned hearing what sounded like gunfire. how long after this initial incident where you saw the van hit a lot of people before coming to a rest, how long after that happened did you hear what sounded like gunfire. it was about five or ten minutes later and there was a lot of gunfire. police got here very quick. and the shots sounded to me like -- the gunfire sounded like it was coming from the barrow market area. i know london fairly well. that sounded to me like the area that it was coming from. >> now, was that the same direction that the van was headed?

i couldn't see any more than that. >> mark roberts at the scene, that interview from now almost threehalf an hour or so. after he saw that van come zooming down the bridge plowing into people and then he reportedly saw five or six people lying on the ground not moving. he was quickly cordoned off and taken now to some kind of a hotel, exactly what happened and who may be behind it. one thing that he mentioned that was interesting was that the van or the vehicle was traveling in the direction of the borough market. we're now getting a description from an employee at the restaurant where that second incident took place. >> it says people were crazy, the people don't care about nothing. i saw three people but they say there's more than that. when he was asked how many people, he said he saw three in front of us. he added our door has holes and there was a fight or something. i don't know. so this witness -- by this witness' account we can't tell if the suspects were apprehended. it's very hard for witnesses often to tell how many people are running because it is chaotic. the borough mark

i want to bring in mark roberts, who is joining us on the phone. you are on the end of the london bridge. describe for me what you're seeing and hearing right now. mark roberts, this is ana cabrera. you are live on cnn right now. we're looking at pictures from the london bridge. what is going on where you are? >> i'm finding it very difficult to hear. i'll just tell you, hopefully you can hear, i was on london bridge. what i saw was a van coming across london bridge at high speed, swerving on and off the pavement. it knocked over several people and came within 20 yards of where i was before it curved to the other side of the road and it knocked somebody nearly 20 feet in the air. the van then carried on across the bridge and i think it hit a bus stop and came to a halt further down the road. but within my line of sight, there were five or six bodies that i could see on the ground, people who were not moving and now it's massive police and paramedics in the area. i'm with the police at the moment. they've gathered all the people together who were on

when details of the terrible incident started coming in, one of the first eye witnesses was mark roberts was at london bridge and spoke to ana cabrara. >> the police got here very quickly and the shots sounded to me like it was coming from the borough market area. that's in suffx. i know london fairly well and that sounded to me like the area it was coming from. >> is that the same direction the van was headed? >> it's a bit further on. so that would have been consistent with somebody getting out of the van and running away and being caught? >> when you saw the van j incident unfolding, how long did it take for police to respond? do you have a sense of how long it took? >> it was very quick. i mean there were police patrolling round all the time anyway in the area. and i was at london bridge station tonight and there were probably half a dozen police at the station itself earlier in the evening just being a presence. so they have been missing very quickly. i'm not going to be up to continue on the line because i'm at the moment i'm on a bus. the police have gathered together all the poli

if confirmed, the move by special counsel robert mueller would mark a turning point in the fbi investigationence in last year's presidential election. mr trump's lawyer has called the leak of information outrageous, inexcusable and illegal. our north america correspondent david willis told me the washington post wasn't alone in saying president trump was facing investigation. it now appears, mike, that the new york times, another revered newspaper in this country, is giving at least some credence to that report in the washington post. the new york times reporting that senior intelligence officials, people who were not part of the trump campaign, due to give evidence to the special counsel robert mueller in the next few days, possibly even this week. now, that's significant because the initial investigation, the investigation that the special counsel robert mueller inherited from the fbi, was into alleged links between the russian government and the trump campaign to allegedly pervert the outcome of last year's presidential election. well, now, less than a month after he was appointed special
