Update:
They are able to declare things terrorist attacks within an hour of it occurring. Who would have thought?
Via Mashable:
A masked man stabbed and seriously wounded another man in an attack in London’s Leytonstone tube station on Saturday evening that police have described as a terrorist incident.
While details on are still emerging, The Independent said witnesses described hearing the man shouting “This is for Syria” during the attack, before stabbing the other man in the neck.
Police have not confirmed that the attacker made the statement about Syria, but said counterterrorism officials are investigating.
“We are treating this as a terrorist incident. I would urge the public to remain calm, but alert and vigilant,” said Commander Richard Walton, who leads the Met’s Counter Terrorism Command, in a statement.
“The threat from terrorism remains at severe, which means that a terrorist attack is highly likely.”
Footage of the aftermath of the stabbing appears to show police trying to subdue the masked man. A large pool of blood can be seen in the frame.
