3 London Subway Stations Evacuated

**dglienna** · Jul 21st, 2005, 07:31 AM

Smoke coming from stations. Suspicious passenger with exploding backpack!
And a bus "incident"

Breaking news!

**NoteMe** · Jul 21st, 2005, 07:47 AM

Doesn't sound so big. An eye vitnes says that guy was carrying the bag when it exploded. And since no one is reported hurt yet. Not even the guy carrying the bag, then it must have been small.

These stations have reported suspicios events:
Warren Street, Oval and Shepherd's Bush.

**dglienna** · Jul 21st, 2005, 07:50 AM

Nail Bomb reported in the subway

**NoteMe** · Jul 21st, 2005, 07:52 AM

A new vitness says that the guy carrying the bag looked dissapointed after the explosion..

**yrwyddfa** · Jul 21st, 2005, 07:57 AM

The explosions seem to be detonators only.

**dglienna** · Jul 21st, 2005, 08:00 AM

Entire subway shut down.

**NoteMe** · Jul 21st, 2005, 08:07 AM

Uncorfirmed (Sky news):
Bomb on a buss?
Shooting?

**NoteMe** · Jul 21st, 2005, 08:32 AM

One person is hurt...

**DeadEyes** · Jul 21st, 2005, 08:35 AM

Well this is weird, is this people playing a warped joke, or someone trying to prove security measures are pointless.
Perhaps they are jihadis with memory problems.
"think,think.what have I forgotten?"
"bag,check"
"detonator,check"
"ticket,check"
"semtex,doh!"

**dglienna** · Jul 21st, 2005, 08:45 AM

Windows of the bus blown out

**NotLKH** · Jul 21st, 2005, 09:11 AM

Is there any way to build a small bombproof chamber that everyone has to rapidly pass thru before boarding buses, trains, planes?

With the technology to send an em pulse powerful enough to detonate any bombs that the person might happen to be carrying before they get on?

**DeadEyes** · Jul 21st, 2005, 09:27 AM

If there was anything remotely usable like that I'd imagine Israel would be using it already.

Seems quite serious...well serious enough to bring Londons infrastructure grinding to a halt again. Nice to see, after 1st reports, that the only person known to be injured was the person actually carrying the "bomb".

Woof

**Blade** · Jul 21st, 2005, 09:36 AM

Seems like they were all detonators, designed to scare rather than hurt.
I'm going to guess that this is the work of some twisted sicko copycat who wants his 15 minutes of fame

**wossname** · Jul 21st, 2005, 09:39 AM

Interesting that the Americans hear about bombs in London before us Brits

The USA are deporting their terrorists to the UK!!!!

They have bomb-sniffing machines in the airport in the US. Not all of them, but in the major hub near me. I think it's in production everywhere. I don't think people go through it, just their luggage.

**NotLKH** · Jul 21st, 2005, 09:42 AM

its slow, though, and what are the consequences?
Perp might get arrested.

With a bomber-zapper, the consequences are a bit more severe and permanent.

Plus, it makes a nice boom!

**dglienna** · Jul 21st, 2005, 09:47 AM

Blair just said that there were 4 explosions.

They allegedly caught a perp in the hospital that others chased out of the subway.

Creating a whole new game:
plant the banger on the backpacker, then join the mob for a bit of happy slapping.

Then they just detonate themselves while waiting in line with everyone else to pass through the machine.

**yrwyddfa** · Jul 21st, 2005, 12:39 PM

It seems like it was a failed attempt at carnage. The police conference, here in London, said that there was unexploded explosives.

. . . and they've left loads and loads of evidence,too

**Cander** · Jul 21st, 2005, 12:51 PM

Hope its enough evidence to find them.

**MasterBlaster** · Jul 21st, 2005, 12:56 PM

Just read there were explosives in the bags with the detonators. They must have mixed up a bad batch of explosives or something. Thankfully.

**demotivater** · Jul 21st, 2005, 01:11 PM

Heard people were coming out covered in white dust - which could be tatp (tri acetone tri peroxide). A favorite of Al Qaeda. But it sounds like the bomb maker screwed up, it's got to be mixed very precisely otherwise it's to hard to set off, or can go off after just a bump. If their gear didn't get blown to bits, which it sounds like it didn't, I'm sure there's a boat load of evidence there. Sure hope so anyway.

**Pino** · Jul 21st, 2005, 01:23 PM

Yea, it looks like they failed massivly, and to be honest they are so going to wish they didnt, if they get sent to jail. There life isnt going to be worth living they will be lets say... i'll leave you guys to think about it.

but good news is no seriosu casultys just yet!

**yrwyddfa** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 05:00 AM

Tube train has been evacuated at Stockwell. There is an ongoing incident and shots have been heard.

The Northern Line has been suspended.

**yrwyddfa** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 05:01 AM

Scotland Yard have just confirmed they've shot someone on the Northern Line

**Wokawidget** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 05:02 AM

Link...we cannot find the link that "confirms" this.

Armed Police surround Mosque in East London says BBC headline ticker . . .

**visualAd** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 05:50 AM

Who needs the BBC news when we have VBForums?

**wossname** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 06:50 AM

This is so cool, our police PWND some dude. Jumped on him and blew him away. Sounds like something the KGB would have done. Maybe the guy hadn't paid for his train ticket.

Anyway its about time our police force grew a pair.

Way to go SO19

Update:
SKYNews: "London police on 'shoot to kill' orders if they believe someone is about to detonate a bomb".

Surely this could set off a bomb itself?

**Wokawidget** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 06:54 AM

PWND?

Woof

**NoteMe** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 06:59 AM

The same guys as last time are claiming to be behind the whole thing again....I guess they are running out of bomb makers these days..

Next time the bomb will actualy heal people....

Shot 5 times in the head while lying on the ground and **** loads of police officers stepping on him..

..that is PWND..

**Pino** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 07:01 AM

"One of them was carrying a black handgun - it looked like an automatic - they pushed him to the floor, bundled on top of him and unloaded five shots into him."

Another passenger on the train, Anthony Larkin, told BBC News the man had been wearing a "bomb belt with wires coming out".

... man this bombing stuff is getting bad now. There all freaking sheep...I feel sorry for 'real' muslims who actually listen to their religion. Nowhere in islam does it say go blow your self up and you are good.

:angry pino:

**wossname** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 07:03 AM

I'm going to be glued to BBC.co.uk all afternoon now.

**Wokawidget** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 07:05 AM

Look you Norwegian muppet...what does PWND actually stand for?

Pull Weapon Now Dead?

Also, you got a link to the people who confessed?

Woof

**wossname** · Jul 22nd, 2005, 07:06 AM

People keep saying "automatic" handgun. I never realised Scotland Yard had started issuing its officers with Tec 9's.

Although that would be sweet.

*holds machine pistol sideways*
"You under arrest beotch, get yo a55 on tha ground!"

And there is no way I am going to translate PWND for you.....do a search in CC...
