A hero taxi driver has revealed how he tried to knock down three men armed with 12-inch hunting knives who reportedly stabbed pedestrians after mowing down up to 20 people with a white van on London Bridge.
Witnesses reported hearing 'rapid gunfire' amid reports that least seven people have been stabbed, leaving bodies 'strewn' on the road in central London. One of the casualties is reportedly a police officer.
But amid the horror a cabbie - who said he saw the men brandishing 'long blades' stabbing 'randomly' on Borough High Street - spun around his vehicle and attempted to halt the terror.
Speaking to LBC, he said: 'I thought, "I'm gonna try and hit him, I'm gonna try and knock him down".
'I spun the cab round, I was about to ram one of them, but he side-stepped and three police officers came running towards them with their batons drawn.
'I was shouting at everybody, just get away from the area, stay back, just run the other way. There were a good few hundred people out there.'
Another taxi driver named only as Paul said: 'I was just going over London Bridge and on the left hand side it looked like someone had been knocked off a bike.
'A few yards on I saw another person laying down and a woman screaming.
'A few yards on from that there was a couple of bodies on the right hand side.'
