More Bombings In London

One only person has been reported as injured so far.

LONDON (Reuters) – Up to four explosions hit London’s transport system on Thursday, exactly two weeks after more than 50 people were killed in blasts on underground trains and a bus.

No one was reported injured in the blasts that caused major disruption and shook the nerves of an already jittery city.

Witnesses said they had seen what could have been a would-be bomber running away after dropping a rucksack on one of the trains.

“We all got off on the platform and the guy just ran and started running up the escalator,” one witness who gave her name as Andrea told the BBC.

“Everyone was screaming for someone to stop him. He ran past me … and he ran out of the station. In fact he left a bag on the train,” she said.

A blast blew out the windows of a bus in Hackney in east London, but there were no reported injuries.

A police officer told Reuters: “The bus driver heard a bang at the back of the bus. He thought it was probably a vehicle that had hit him.
