This Could Be Rotterdam Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 BBC news reporting white van mounted pavement hitting at least six pedestrians. Police boats currently searching the river for missing pedestrians. Sky news reporting possible stabbing attack but BBC making no mention of it so fingers crossed that's just speculation. Here's hoping it's nothing terror related,that horrible deja vu from Westminster bridge at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBC news have got a reporter who was coincidentally on the bridge at the time, they've got her on the phone she's not said anything about a stabbing, she's going to he took to a hotel to make a statement as a witness. Police have just arrested someone on the scene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 seems to be like before sadly. Stabbing and shots mentioned on Twitter ( I know ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Could Be Rotterdam Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 Twitter also suggesting an explosion in the fanzone in turin but surely BBC would be reporting that? If that's a hoax it's absolutely sick! What a world we live in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Could Be Rotterdam Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 Obviously not a main concern right now, but if this is terror related then could it see the election postponed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 As per twitter 3 men jumped out the van and proceeded to stab people. Unconfirmed of course. Sick world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See my post earlier there was a BBC journo there at the time she nearly got mowed over as well, she said the van didn't stop, it left the scene so the stabbings/shootings are unlikely, unless they happened after the event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a world we live in! https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/3717023/juventus-turin-fanzone-explosions-real-madrid-champions-league-final-latest/ Quote French media reports that there are more than 200 injured, two critically. It is not clear whether their injuries were sustained from the reported blasts or from the crush of people fleeing the scene. Emergency services were seen ferrying people on stretchers while police struggled to maintain order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Apparently the Turin 'explosion' was a false alarm, but it created a stampede which has cause a lot of injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 (edited) Very thin on details at the moment. This sounds bad, witness said they heard gunfire that lasted "minutes". Edited June 3, 2017 by PompeyVillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
