    False alarm - 'police can find no evidence of gunshots being fired.' Sky News.

    False alarm it seems.


    Met police say there is ‘no evidence of shots fired or casualties’ after earlier reports of gunfire at tube station

    TfL Travel Alerts

    @TfLTravelAlerts
    Oxford Circus and Bond Street stations now both reopened and all trains are stopping normally.

    Not aimed at you, but why isnit every time something happens everyone remembers the one time they were in london/new York and has to tell all of social media? Really baffles me that one.

    Ain't interpreting it as that. TBH I only said that coz it is kinda a lil bit of a shock to me coz it was very recent and I go to that area a lot. But I agree it is mad that if someone has been to an area for 2 secs like 5 years ago and they say about it a lot

    Facebook is the main one for it. The people that do it are all obvious attention seekers too

    Facebook has either really funny memes or attention seekers

    I remember being in Utah 53 years after Kennedy was shot in Texas. I could have easily been caught up in it.

    I remember being in the Rummer 25 years ago. Don't think anyone got shot but it was a good night.

    We live in strange times.

    Surely if you hear, or think you hear, gunfire, you duck/run/hide/phone the police NOT get on Twitter and make a twat of yourself???

    How to respond to an emergency.

    1. Check mobile phone battery.
    2. Push woman with baby out of the way to get video of women with babies being pushed out of the way during evacuation.
    3. On explosion / fire try to mask the phone microphone so it doesn't pick you up yelling "sweeeeet".
    4. Post video on twitter.
    5. Curse person ( probably called madSKiLLz69 ) for posting a few seconds before you. With better footage.
    6. Post video on facebook.
    7. Realise the incident is incredibly close so run like ****.
    7b. During step 7, pause to ensure your facebook status is set to "safe".

    What's the score here?

    I reckon an incident was to occur but had to be abandoned upon realising some of the crisis actors were stuck in traffic.

    Didn't MailOnline report that a van had run over some pedestrians too?

    Re: Shots at Oxford Circus Tube Station

    Reports of a punch up at the station that caused a bit of a panic and someone literally hit the panic button.
