Up to 20 people are feared to be injured after a van reportedly ploughed into pedestrians on London Bridge.

The vehicle mounted the pavement at the scene in central London this evening, according to shocked witnesses.
It comes just two months after a terrorist mowed down pedestrians at Westminster Bridge before stabbing an unarmed cop. Five victims were killed in the attack.

There are unconfirmed witness reports from the scene at London Bridge tonight that people may have been stabbed.

A witness told Reuters she saw people with apparent knife wounds on the bridge.
