Three people were killed and about 40 injured in London on Wednesday after an attacker drove his car into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge, killing two people, before crashing it outside parliament and trying to enter the building, armed with a knife. The attacker stabbed an unarmed police officer who later died from the injuries, before being shot by armed police. Investigators say they believe they know the identity of the attacker, and that he is thought to have acted alone but was \u201cinspired by international terrorism\u201d.<\/p>\n
