At the top right under the banner where it says 'Latest', it says:

This on SKY NEWS
INCIDENTS REPORTED NEAR TUBE STATIONS


A series of incidents have been reported near Warren Street, Oval and Shepherd's Bush stations on the London Underground.

The station have been evacuated. Smoke was seen coming from a train.


Speaking to Sky News, one witness who was travelling on one of the trains said a man told him that a passenger carrying a rucksack made an exclamation and then the rucksack exploded.

The witness said: "The doors connecting my carriage to the next burst open and people rushed in. "There was a smell of smoke."

More to follow...

They have mentioned several times about armed police going into one of the hospitals. No explanation yet. Maybe one of the bombers was injured but not killed and is in there?

Fortunately, the whole thing appears to have been much less serious than the other attack. No deaths reported.

It's good to keep in mind that the Brits, and Europeans in general, are FAR more dependent on their public transportation. Not everyone can afford a car, especially with the cost of living in London, and of course gas is far more expensive than here. I would say the public trust in the transportation system is eroding rapidly. This all begs the question, what do the Brits do when they quit taking public trains and the like?

Hospital "incident" supposedly over with no news about what it actually was. I had hoped that they caught a bomber.
