[quote]A man has died and two are injured after police responded to a reported machete attack in south-east London.
The government is reported to be treating the attack as a suspected terrorist incident and the prime minister said it was "truly shocking".
Eyewitnesses said a man was assaulted in a Woolwich street by two individuals who were later shot by officers.
Local MP Nick Raynsford said the dead man was a soldier at Woolwich barracks but this has not been confirmed.
People carrying out the attack were heard to say Allahu Akbar [God is Great] were heard, said our political editor.
One witness, identified only as James, said two men had attacked another man, aged about 20, who was wearing a T-shirt of military charity Help for Heroes.
"These two guys were crazed. They were just animals. They dragged him from the pavement and dumped his body in the middle of the road and left his body there," he told LBC radio.
He said after the "horrendous" attack, the two men, who were also in their 20s, stood around, waving knives and a gun, and asked people to take pictures of them "as if they wanted to be on TV or something".
