Alleged attacker 'acted alone' - policepublished at 08:57 British Summer Time 19 June 2017
Asked about reports of a number of suspects running away from the van, the Met police said that was a key line of inquiry at the start of investigation.
"But from what we are seeing and what witnesses are reporting to us there was nobody else in the van, it appears that this time this attacker attacked alone," Dep Asst Commissioner Basu said.
"This is not to say we are not investigating the full circumstances of how he came to be where he was but at this point in time there was nobody else in the van."
