There was just a controlled explosion by a bomb disposal unit in London.

I was talking to someone on the phone. He said there was "a commotion" outside and there was screaming to get away from the windows. Then I heard a BOOM which he also heard. We ended the call.

EDIT: I just heard back. "There was just a controlled explosion by a bomb disposal unit."
