An alleged video from the scene of an incident where law enforcement shot a man dead who had reportedly managed to stab several people has emerged online.
While the police have assessed the incident as a terrorist-related attack, there's still no information on the number of possible casualties.
The last such incident in London to be considered by the authorities as a terrorist attack occurred in November. At the time, police shot dead a man wearing a fake suicide vest who had stabbed two people to death and wounded three more before being wrestled to the ground by bystanders.

Now the @metpoliceuk say the incident has been declared as a "terrorist-related" one.#Streatham #London pic.twitter.com/gpZL2ygHXI
Looks like this was another terror attack in London. Armed officers run away from the attacker after he was shot dead because he had a device strapped to him.
