Written by News on 09/06/2017
This is the moment the first armed police arrive at Borough Market, just as a man is being stabbed.
They jump out and shoot the three terrorists as their car rolls forward.
One officer falls over one of the attackers.
But he gets up again as a second team of officers arrives at the scene.
There is no sound on the CCTV but we know that 48 rounds were fired by eight police officers.
The three terrorists were dead – eight minutes after they drove their van into London Bridge and started stabbing anyone they could find.
They killed eight people and injured 48.
Police said on Wednesday night that they had arrested another three men, meaning that they are now questioning five men in connection with the attack.
All were arrested in Ilford, east London, one on drugs charges and two on terrorism charges.
The families of the three London attackers have condemned their actions.
Charisse O’Leary, the former partner of attacker Rachid Redouane, said she had "shed many tears" for those caught up in the attack.
She added: "My thoughts and efforts now are with trying to bring up my daughter with the knowledge that some day I will have to try and explain to her why her father did what he did."
