- CNN says "Witnesses said shots were heard about 10 minutes after the bridge incident"
- "A man suddenly appeared in the restaurant with a massive knife -- some people in the restaurant believe there may have been another man -- but it was so chaotic it was hard to tell," the witness said.

No info at all on Vauxhall "incident".
More eyewitness accounts:
Natalie and Ben were coming up to the entrance of the underground on Borough High Street when they saw lots of people running. The married couple witnessed someone being stabbed. Ben said: "I saw a man in red with quite a large blade, I don't know the measurement I guess maybe 10 inches. He was stabbing a man...he stabbed him about three times fairly calmly. "It looked the man had maybe been trying to intervene but there wasn't much that he could do he was being stabbed quite coldly and he slumped to the ground. The attacker and another man walked off quite "boldly". "A table was thrown, a bottle was thrown at the individual with the knife and then we heard three gunshots and we ran," he added.

Video - shots fired as police ram pub doors
"The cab driver turned into the market and we got stuck right in the middle of the shooting we were in a one-way street and couldn’t turn around. There were loads of shots being fired. Two people were on the floor behind the church with two or three people leaning over them. About 50 police were pointing guns at us - the cab driver had the laser pointed right at them, our hands were up, we were trying to get out so they shooed us away. A man was coming out of the restaurant, he had a napkin on his neck with blood pouring out, there was another man lying on the floor. I don’t know if he was in the recovery position or dead. We weaved through little side streets where the police were telling us to go to Blackfriars Bridge and we could see people looking over the side; people had maybe jumped over the bridge. A couple of times we had to lie down on the floor of the cab because of the shooting around us."
