Tonight, a van drove into a crowd of worshippers leaving a mosque in London after the end of Ramadan prayers. There were many injuries and possibly some deaths. After the van stopped, one of the passengers jumped out. The attacker was taken down by the crowd and held until police got there. He is in custody, although his identity has not yet been released.
It seems rather certain that this is yet another terror attack in London.
We don't know yet if this is an attack on moderate Muslims by yet another crazy Islamic terrorist or if it is a revenge attack by a non-Muslim as a result of the other recent Islamic terror attacks. In either event, it is the move of madmen.
Correction: An earlier version of this post said that the attacker had tried to stab people nearby after hitting them with the van. Although reported by the media, this detail now seems wrong and has been deleted.
