LONDON: Interior Minister says Britain was “bruised but not broken” by a string of terror attacks, as Police questioned the prime suspect of deliberately mowing down Muslims in London.
Britain was coming to terms with the aftermath of its fourth bloody assault in three months following Monday’s van attack on worshippers leaving the Finsbury Park Mosque in north London.
The family of Darren Osborne, the prime suspect, said he was “troubled” and described his action as “sheer madness.”
Osborne, 47, a father of four from Cardiff in Wales, was arrested after the attack and is being questioned by police on suspicion of attempted murder and terrorism. Police are treating the incident as a terror attack but believe the suspect acted alone.
The spate of attacks had “bruised but not broken the heart of this great nation,” Home Secretary Amber Rudd said.
