it says seven sisters road is now closed northbound and hornsey road and southbound at roxie. to emergency services, they are closing down all roads. it seems the situation is expanding to some degree. we know one person is in custody. we know there are multiple casualties. we know ambulances, several emergency responding crews have gone to the scene to work on the casualties. still waiting to hear on how many people may be injured, whether anybody has been killed in this incident. the only information we have been able to confirm based on what the police have disseminated in information right now is that they were called just after midnight local time to an incident on seven sisters road, to reports of a vehicle in collision with pedestrians. this is north london near fensbury park, a residential area but also a very busy road we are learning. the london ambulance service has sent a number of resources to this incident right now. police say officers are on scene with other emergency services and, again, they are continuing to try to determine exactly what went on here. we are

seven sisters road is incredibly noisy, so that is nothing new. houting got louder and louder i went to have a look at what was going on in the access road across my block of flats, with many people gathered outside. i don't have a good idea of numbers, possibly 200 people? many, many people, enough to block at least half of seven sisters road. as well as the access road. they were nervous and shouting very loud. there was no fighting at all. ididn't i didn't see a fight, at least. they were nervous and shouting and i could see that they were waving. later on i found out they were waving at a police car stuck in traffic further down. and in a matter of seconds the police car came here, stopped by them and then theyjust dragged someone, pushed someone towards the police. very nervously, "take him, take him!" and then the police put this man inside the car. so to be clear, the crowd, in essence, offered up this person to the police? is that right? yes. there were very nervously pushing him towards the police, telling the police officer who was confus

as i was coming down the seven sisters road, i saw coming down the seven sisters road, isawa coming down saw a huge number of people that had arrived and it was a second wave of ambulance services arriving. we saw ambulance services arriving. we saw a few police officers. there was no blocking off yet so i could get close. two bodies i saw on the ground lying still. i couldn't tell whether they were still alive or dead. people i spoke to who were there, they told me there was at least six other bodies i couldn't see. was there a van bear? there may have been a group of people outside the mosque. —— was there a van there? the van was driven into a gi’oup there? the van was driven into a group of people? ace poacher eyewitnesses and ask what did they exactly see. one turned around and pointed a white van and neither bodies and they said a man was there. they described him as a white man who had driven the car at the eyewitnesses said it was a deliberate attack. the location of the mosque was not exactly, it was another one a few seconds away. there is a cafe fare. people were milling aroun

on seven sisters road. according to muslim council that happened nearby the mosque outside the muslim welfare house, the van ran over worshippers, leaving the mosque after midnight ramadan prayers. it also added that their prayers are with those victims, we have been hearing from theresa may, primprime minister's office, she described the crash as a terrible incident, we dean don't have much more, she said my thoughts are with those who have been injured, their loved one and emergency services on seen. london ambulance service saying that injury have been taken to area hospitals, this is unclear if it is terror related, authorities in london are continuing to investigate a possible cause. finsbury park mosque was locks so yeahlong associated with extt ideologies for many years after 9/11 attacks in u.s., but it was then shut down and reorganized. it has not been associated with radical views for more than a decade. before two today, brit app's brs terroror alert was already raisd to severe. it was raised af

this happened on seven sisters road north of central london. officers say they were called to the scene there shortly after midnight local time. it's now just after 2:00 a.m. i want to bring back in our cnn national security analyst peterbergen who is familiar with this area. we have learned so much information just from that eyewitness who didn't see the actual incident itself, but she was able to give us a great description of what has happened since then. did you have a chance to listen in and if so, what stood out to you? >> well, the witness seemed to imply that the targets of the attack were muslims leaving the mosque. and the mosque that the visited in the past is a notorious mosque historically. the viewers may recall him because e he a distinctive appearance. he had one eye and hooks for hands because of an accident. but it attracted many militants to his mosque. the shoe bomber and others, this was a place that i'm giving you a history here. if you were interested in targeting a group of muslims at a mosque that was notorious, this wo

>> i have to admit we've been anchored to this specific street, seven sisters road, for the past fewours. the authorities have not moved the police lines where i am standing. it may be that they've relocated some of the scenes there. but what's off-camera to my right is three large police vans, they are staggered sort of blocking the view down the road. and that is because this is now a crime scene. this is where those counterterrorism officers are investigating, trying to collect forensic data, that one individual was killed there. there is human evidence as well. so they are doing their work there. we don't expect these blockades to be moved any time soon. and the police officers that you see behind me over the shoulder lined up here holding this position. this is very much an active crime scene. we know that prime minister theresa may is convening what is called here a cobra meeting. this is the equivalent of a white house situation room meeting. where all the top ministers, all of her top members of the cabinet, the top met police authorities, as well as the counterterrorism offi

it says that the investigation into the circumstances of this incident in seven sisters road and the pictures here in finsbury park is ongoing. this is after they were reporting earlier that a van hitting pedestrians, and they did not understand whether it was intentional or not. or whether it is terror-related or not. nbc news being able to confirm the result of the collision, one dead, according to london police, and eight injured in this incident in london. the statement goes on to say they became aware of it about 12:20 on an early monday. the officers attended alongside with other emergency services including both the fire brigade and the london ambulance, and they tended to a number of casualties, and the statement goes on the say that one man was pronounced dead at the scene, a tand the officers now are in th process of informing the next of kin, and postmortem examination will be scheduled in due course. this is what the statement says from london metropolitan police. they going on the say that eight people were injured and taketone three separate hospitals. two people were t

"the sun" highlighting the man who saved the mosque maniac. there was an imam who tackled this attacker, pinning him down waiting for the police to arrive and a daily mail consumed with hate, father of four suspected of mowing down worshippers from the mosque before blowing a kiss to police officers and shouting i would do it again. we are getting more details about this attacker, darren osborne, 47-year-old father of four and potentially attempted murder charges. one person killed in this attack what the calling a horrific terrorist attack. this took place right after midnight, 12:20 a.m. when the van plowed into a crowd of pedestrians leaving midnight prayers. one person killed was getting first-aid before the attack took place and unclear whether he was killed because of it or not. regardless it was another tragedy horrific incident

we are on seven sisters road. to my right is the finsbury police mosque. the mood is calm but a lot of people understandably upset. i spoke to one eyewitness who was there on the scene just moments after this attack being a vehicle that mowed over a group of pedestrians. this eyewitness said he saw four, maybe five injured people on the ground mooch we know police were on-the-scene but we can probably safely assume that those injured individuals are n in. and the eyewitness also described who he described a man tackled to the ground and arrest bide police. and it was kraubted by the police statement that was issued earlier that said one individual was arrested. we don't know the number of casualties officially from the authorities. again, this kwlins that i spoke to said about four or five people he saw injured on the ground. he actually showed me a video thathowed at least three people wounded on the ground with some of the pedestrians there trying to tend to their injuries, richard. >> lucy, can you compare the amount of time that it's taking to have inf
