Five people were killed and at least 40 injured in London including an Australian permanent resident on Wednesday after a car ploughed into pedestrians and an attacker stabbed a policeman close to the British parliament in what police called a "marauding terrorist attack".
The dead included the assailant and the policeman he stabbed, while the other three victims were among those hit by the car as it tore along Westminster Bridge before crashing into railings just outside parliament.
