The Parliament in London has been placed in lockdown following an incident.
Early reports suggest a man approached Parliament with a knife but was swiftly intercepted by Police.
According to Metro, people were heard shouting, “knife, knife, knife” before the Police ran from Parliament to deal with a man in the area.

The incident took place very close to where Khalid Masood drove his car onto Westminster Bridge killing innocent pedestrians.
At this point, this incident is not believed to be terror related.
