    Britain Attack

    One man is dead and police shot and injured two suspects after what Prime Minister David Cameron is calling “the most appalling crime”:

    (PM Cameron) “People across Britain, in every community, I believe will utterly condemn this attack.”

    Full details about what happened haven’t been released. But witnesses say the attackers were heavily armed with knives and other weapons. It happened in broad daylight in the district of Woolwich.

    A video has emerged apparently showing a man at the scene with blood on his hands carrying a machete trying to justify the killing to onlookers.

    President Obama released the following statement on Thursday on the attack in London:

    “I condemn in the strongest terms the appalling attack against a British service member in Woolwich on May 22.   The United States stands resolute with the United Kingdom, our ally and friend, against violent extremism and terror.  There can be absolutely no justification for such acts, and our thoughts and prayers are with the family of the victim, the police and security services responding to this horrific act and the communities they serve, and the British people.  Our special relationship with the United Kingdom is especially important during times of trial, and I look forward to my trip to the United Kingdom to participate in the June G-8 Summit, hosted by Prime Minister Cameron, which will include discussions on the important global security challenges our countries face together.”
