London Bridge attack: 2 killed 3 injured ex-terror convict Usman Khan named as assailant

A man suspected of stabbing two people to death in a terror attack on London Bridge was a former prisoner convicted in 2012 for terrorism offences, police said on Saturday. The knifeman, wearing a suspected hoax explosive device, was shot dead by police after the daylight assault on Friday that also saw bystanders intervene to try and disarm him. Police identified the man, who was shot dead by officers after the Friday attack, as 28-year-old Usman Khan. "This individual was known to authorities, having been convicted in 2012 for terrorism offences. He was released from prison in December 2018 on licence," police said.
