LONDON (Reuters) - London police said on Friday a police officer had shot a man at the Stockwell underground train station but declined to comment on reports he was a suspected suicide bomber.
"I saw them (police) offload five shots into the person on the floor," eyewitness Mark Whitby at the station told BBC television. "I saw them kill a man."
Police would not give any further details.
Police were hunting for bombers on Friday after an apparently failed bid on Thursday to bomb London's transport network.
On July 7, 56 people were killed in bombings on the underground and bus network, including four bombers.
