  Old  More London explosions?

Looks like there may have been another underground bombing today


There have been unconfirmed reports of an apparently minor explosion on the London Underground.

A series of incidents have been reported near Warren Street, Oval and Shepherd's Bush stations on the London Underground.

The stations have been evacuated.

Train passenger Ivan McCracken told Sky News he spoke to an Italian man who witnessed an explosion.

"He told me he had seen a man carrying a rucksack which suddenly exploded. It was a minor explosion but enough to blow open his rucksack. Everyone rushed from the carriage. People evacuated very quickly. There was no panic.

"I didn't see anyone injured but there was shock and fright.

"There was a smell of smoke."

"The man who was holding the rucksack looked extremely dismayed.

Police have cordoned off the streets around Warren Street station. They said a suspect package had been reported on a Victoria Line train.

Sky reporter Mark White said authorities are "pushing everybody as far back from the station as they can".
Apparently there has been another bus explosion too

According to Sky News the one at Warren Street was a nail bomb and no one was hurt on the bus, also heard that one of the 'bombers' might of been injured and went to a nearby hospital which is currently being sealed of and searched.

I love how he started a topic about disaster an terrorism and all we have to say is sarcastic and smart ass remarks.

I don't really know whats going on over there but in the newspapers in Canada they keep saying we are next for an attack. I hope not, but I am not worried because they would probably do it in Toronto and thats like all the way across the country from me.
But I don't belive the newspapers anyway.

I didn't even hear of these new bombs... Scary in deed but Britain will not be broken into pieces and made to look weak. We are a strong country, no number of attacks by these bombers can destroy that.
