A woman has died and five others were injured in a knife attack in Russell Square, central London.

Police and ambulance crews were called at 22:33 BST on Wednesday to reports of a man in possession of a knife and injuring people.

Up to six injured people were found at the scene; one woman was pronounced dead a short time later.

The man was arrested at 22:39; a taser was discharged by one of the arresting officers.

Terrorism is one possible motive being explored, the Metropolitan Police say.

Just be extra vigilant. look for exits as soon as you go into a shop and stuff. I'd be so scared if I were you too, but hopefully there will be twice as much security now

RIP to the woman who died, the world is really becoming quite a scary place

RIP
Just the other day I was in a building and I was in room on 3rd floor all the way to the end of a long corridor and I thought to myself if terrorists came in here with guns where would I hide? Cupboards were full, couldn't hide under the table, too high to jump out the window...this was random. The point is scary times and no just wish Isis

Will do
I actually started doing this when I'm going places like the cinema in my small ass town

i hope this isnt a terrorist attack, but it looks suspiciously like it

[Shaun]

Seen most on Twitter referring to it as gang-related... but then obviously that's just Twitter.

In a really sick way you're lucky that this has happened as I'd imagine, if this turns out to be an act of terror and what with all the threats, that London security will be really ramped up so you should feel safer than ever when you're there.

Honestly just don't let it bother you - go about your business, enjoy yourself, have fun and do what you want. If you fear them they've won. London is a VERY big place and the chance of being caught up in something like this is very slim.

RIP to the lady. What a world we live in, sickening.

I was actually thinking this
If this is something to do with terror- in a horrible way- at least it's over and done with, if that sort of makes sense...

RIP the world really is becoming a scary place.

London far to scummy to be the Capital, give it to Liverpool instead

[Jason.]

That's awful. RIP

[Ammi]

Early indications suggest mental health is a significant factor in this case and that is one major line of inquiry.

Awful news again to wake up to. RIP to the lady who lost her life and a speedy recovery to the injured

It is a scary world at the moment. I was at Old Trafford last night with 60 odd thousand other people and other than a quick bag search there wasn't much security and one of my first thoughts were that someone could do some serious damage in a place like that as you're so packed in. I refuse to let terror win though .....

I agree Annie

[the truth]

thank goodness we are not surrounded by 7 or 8 open land borders like france and other EU nations...that thought simply underlines how insane the EU open borders masterplan is and how infinitely harder, nay impossible the EU have made the job for the police and counter terrorism / secret services

imagine trying to catch a rat , to stop him entering a property and if he does get inside they trying to kill him before he leaves, ok so you set your traps but then the owner of the property says you cant close holes , so then try stopping/catching the rat with 100 holes in the walls? guess what your job has just become impossible and you will be chasing rats through holes for the rest of your life
