Panic at London’s Waterloo station after ‘3 loud bangs’ & flashes Panic at London’s Waterloo station after ‘3 loud bangs’ & flashes
(32 minutes later)
Passengers fled the London Underground's Waterloo tube station in panic, jumping over ticket barriers and racing up the escalators, after witnessing three loud bangs and flashes on the platform.
The British capital’s transport authorities said they were investigating “a customer incident,” without revealing further details.
Waterloo tube station was closed “as a precaution” late on Friday, which paralyzed traffic on the underground's entire Jubilee line.
 Witnesses reported on Twitter that they'd heard three loud bangs on the platform, while some also saw bright orange flashes. However, there has been no confirmation of a firearm, a bomb or any other weapon used.
Operations on the Jubilee line were restored after a short break, but passengers experienced “severe delays.”
