It didn't seem to last long as it reopened sometime after. I reckon it's just something over nothing. Probably some idiot set a small firework off which caused the panic seeing that people are still setting them off long after bonfire night.

Indeed...it seems that the DM report of a truck being driven into a crowd of shoppers was based on a tweet concerning an unrelated incident on Oxford Street on NOVEMBER 14th...

Iceland, but Aldi is closer..

Just shows the state of mind people are in at the moment..

Chances are it was a sports car being revved and unspent fuel igniting in the exhaust.. you hear them around there a lot, in the narrower streets the "pop,pop,pop" does sound a little like gunfire.

Actually, the Police have issued a statement that the panic was started by two men brawling on the tube platform...
