London hospital on lookout for man after blasts
http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/L21155288.htm

LONDON, July 21 (Reuters) - A hospital near the scene of one of Thursday's explosions in London circulated a memo telling staff to look out for a possibly Asian man with wires protruding from his top, television reports said.

University College Hospital, near Warren Street tube station hit by one of the small blasts, said staff should look out for a black, possibly Asian, man with a blue top with a hole from which wires protruded, Sky television said.

BBC News 24 broadcast a similar report. The hospital could not be reached for immediate comment.

2. Police, wielding submachine guns
just arrested a guy. Saw it on BBC. Just after it happened, journalists were asked to turn their cameras off.

7. Why do they want the cameras off
I swear every time something like this happens the authorities go after the people instead of the terrorists.
