A man on the train told Sky News he spoke to an Italian man who witnessed an explosion.

"He told me he had seen a man carrying a rucksack which suddenly exploded.
Not sounding good

Im supposed to be working in central London tonight as well!

Warren St is local to my office. Will have to wait and see though, obviously a lot of people are making assumptions at the moment. Hope it's just something minor wrong with the trains rather than another attack.

FROM SKY NEWS>>>He told me he had seen a man carrying a rucksack which suddenly exploded. It was a minor explosion but enough to blow open his rucksack. Everyone rushed from the carriage. People evacuated very quickly. There was no panic.

"I didn't see anyone injured but there was shock and fright.

"There was a smell of smoke."

"The man who was holding the rucksack looked extremely dismayed.>>>>>>>


Let's hope they get him and find out something useful

"The man who was holding the rucksack looked extremely dismayed."
I can't be the only one who thought that was humerous despite the tragedy.

Something's going to kick off soon, I can feel it. There are plenty of people for whom the distinction between law abiding muslim and terrorist is getting greyer and greyer.

I feel for my country, I really do

The Warren St tube station sounds like the detonator has gone off but not detonated the explosive. Im not sure that my understanding of blasting charges translates to home made explosives though, but I suppose that the principal is the same.

Thought it was funny too.
Hope he's captured and questioned in the correct manner...
