People mock Fox News claim that terror attack 'shut down city'

Social media users have hit back at a Fox News contributor who claimed the Westminster terror attacker "shut down" London.

Walid Phares said: "One man can shut down a city..." during the Tucker Carlson Tonight show.

Twitter users defied him by posting photos of clear roads and public transport working as normal.

Phares is employed as a terrorism expert by Fox News.

Phares quoted himself on Twitter, telling Fox Business Channel that "One man can shut down a city. The new face of terror".

Metin tweeted a picture showing the London Underground running without delays.

The BBC's political correspondent, Laura Kuenssberg, was reporting from Westminster when the attack happened.

She tweeted Phares, saying his claim was "totally inaccurate".
