UK police: Incident has hallmarks of terror attack




British counter-terrorism police say the deadly attack on Muslims in London has all the hallmarks of a terrorism incident.

Basu added that all victims of the attack were Muslim and two of them are in a critical condition. He also said that it was too early to say whether the death in the incident was related to the attack since the victim was already receiving first aid at the scene. On Monday, a van rammed into Muslim worshippers outside a mosque in north of the city, injuring ten people. The Muslim Council of Britain described the incident as a violent manifestation of Islamophobia. The van driver, who was detained by people at the scene, is now in police custody. Witnesses say he shouted he wanted to kill all Muslims as he attacked the pedestrians.
