IS Claims Inspiration For London Attack

The Islamic State group says it inspired yesterday’s terrorist attack in London.

In the last hour, police there have named 52 year old Khalid Masood as the man they believe was behind the incident.

British Prime Minister Theresa May says the suspect, among the four people killed, was British-born and known to the police.

The fourth person killed was a US tourist from Utah who was in Europe celebrating his 25th wedding anniversary.

Kurt Cochran’s wife was also seriously injured.

Seven people remain in a critical condition in hospital.

But an Irish person injured in the attack is not thought to be seriously injured, likewise for three French students who were in London on a school trip.
