We were trapped ... and waiting to die
After the bloodshed and chaos of attacks, London falls strangely silent
LONDON -Wounded Londoners painted a nightmarish picture of chaos and bloodshed as four explosions ripped through the heart of their city on Thursday, leaving Britain in shock.
Injured and traumatized victims stumbled from Underground rail stations and from the mangled hulk of a bus, all targets of what the government called terrorist attacks.
Scores of people were wounded. Police said there had been three blasts on different parts of the Underground and one on a red double-decker bus near Russell Square, an area popular with tourists and close to the British Museum.
“I came out of the bank and walked 20 meters and I saw the bus, then it just blew up. The ground vibrated with the explosion and the bus flew into the air. It was shattered. Everyone was running for their lives crying out,” said Ayobami Bello, a 42-year-old security guard.
