| An explosion destroyed a double-decker bus in central London during rush hour Thursday, police said, and several blasts also went off on the London subway. There were reports of casualties.
At least three bus explosions are reported throughout London and at least six in the subway, CNN reported.
People covered in blood stumbled out of the subway, and a witness said the entire top deck of the bus was destroyed.
"I was on the bus in front and heard an incredible bang, I turned round and half the double decker bus was in the air," Belinda Seabrook told Press Association, the British news agency. |

We have had seven reported bombs at the moment, my hospital is on red alert, my neighbouring hospital has gone red and is clearing out the burns unit.
Underground has been hit heaviest, Liverpool street station and a double decker bus that was packed to the gills has been hit.
Two definate fatalities, but eyewitness accounts for over 20.
Cental Londons ground to a halt, all public services stopped.

My prayers go out to all the Families in England that have been effected.
May the people involved rot in Hell..........

All news sites I'm familiar with are constantly being updated. I have yet to here of any reports of more than 20 fatalities. But, I do suspect it to be going up for a while as more unfolds.
As told on NBC 5 earlier, there are still evidence of more explosives somewhere...

I figured it was going to be a terrorist attack. ITN have reported that the attacks were coordinated enough to be possible terrorism. So, I'm speculating it is one...
