Seven people were killed in central London when three attackers drove a van into pedestrians on London Bridge and launched knife attacks in Borough Market. The assault began when a van veered off the road and barreled into pedestrians on London Bridge. Three men fled the van with large knives and attacked people at bars and restaurants in nearby Borough Market, police and witnesses said. More than 30 victims were treated at London hospitals and a number of other patients were treated for less serious injuries.
