LONDON • A man was shot dead by police officers after a number of people were stabbed in South London on Sunday, in what the authorities described as a “terrorist-related” incident.

The current terrorism-related threat level in Britain is classified as substantial, meaning that an attack is “likely.”
Didn't this type of craziness just happen eight weeks ago?

UPDATE: Suicide by Gawd...
"I was crossing the road when I saw a man with a machete and silver canisters on his chest being chased by what I assume was an undercover police officer," he told the PA news agency.

UPDATE2: Catch & Release... again
Sudesh Amman, 20, from Harrow, North London, was sentenced to more than three years in jail in 2018 for committing terror offenses.

But he was let-out on automatic release after serving half his sentence.

Belgian police have reportedly shot a woman who was attacking people with a knife in Ghent, Belgium. Details of the incident, which has happened more or less in parallel with a radical Islamic terrorist attack in Streatham, London, which also involved multiple stabbings, are scant.
