UK Prime Minister Theresa May will chair a meeting of Britain's emergency response committee later on Friday after an incident at a west London tube station, her office said in a statement.

“My thoughts are with those injured at Parsons Green and the emergency services who, once again, are responding swiftly and bravely to a suspected terrorist incident,” May said in the statement.

The meeting of COBR, the emergency response committee, will take place at 1200 GMT.
