One person has died and several others injured in a suspected terror attack in London.
The tragic incident took place just after midnight, when a motorist ploughed into worshippers outside a mosque in the Seven Sisters area of the city.
It’s understood that the group were attending nightly prayers for Ramadan when the van hit several people, killing one and injuring up to eight others.
The van driver, a 48-year-old man, was detained by members of the public and subsequently arrested by police.
