A man was on Sunday shot dead by armed officers after a stabbing attack on south London street, which left at least two people injured.The Metropolitan Police Service said on Twitter that the man had been pronounced dead after being shot at around 2 pm in the Streatham neighborhood, NAN reports.“We await updates on their conditions,” the police wrote.”An assessment of the circumstances is still going on; the incident has been declared as terrorist-related,” police said.
A witness to the attack told Britain’s Press Association that the man was carrying a machete and had “silver canisters on his chest.” The witness said the suspect was shot near a Boots cosmetics and health care retailer on Streatham High Road. London has repeatedly been the target of terrorist attacks in recent years, including a knife attack near London Bridge in November that left two dead before the assailant was killed by police.That attack echoed an earlier one in June 2017, when three men drove a van into pedestrians on the bridge before stabbing people at bars and restaurants in the nearby Borough Market.
