LONDON (AP) — One person has died and at least two people were wounded in a violent attack near amilitary training barracks in London, British officials said Wednesday, as Prime Minister David Cameron called an emergency meeting in response.
While details were scant, Cameron called the killing "truly shocking" and said he had asked Home Secretary Theresa May to call an urgent meeting of the government's emergency committee.
Police would not comment immediately on whether the incident appeared to be terror-related.
