:00:00. > :00:00.Tonight at Ten, police have named the man
:00:00. > :00:09.who carried out the terror attack at Westminster.
:00:10. > :00:12.He was 52-year-old Khalid Masood, a British-born man who'd been living
:00:13. > :00:18.The Islamic State group say he was one of their soldiers.
:00:19. > :00:19.Overnight there were raids in Birmingham,
:00:20. > :00:30.Eight people have been arrested so far.
:00:31. > :00:36.These were some of the scenes inside Parliament yesterday,
:00:37. > :00:39.But in the Commons today, a defiant message.
:00:40. > :00:42.We are not afraid, and our resolve will never waver
:00:43. > :00:46.Among the victims was PC Keith Palmer,
:00:47. > :00:56.One of those who tried to save him was a former soldier.
:00:57. > :00:59.When I seen the guy enter the gate, with two knives
:01:00. > :01:06.in the air, attacking, that's the decision was made.
:01:07. > :01:08.in the air, attacking, that's when the decision was made.
:01:09. > :01:13.There were two other deaths - Kurt Cochran was in London
:01:14. > :01:14.celebrating his 25th wedding anniversary.
:01:15. > :01:20.And Aysha Frade was a teacher on her way to pick up her children.
:01:21. > :01:24.Tonight there is news of a another victim.
:01:25. > :01:27.And in Central London tonight, a vigil attended by thousands
:01:28. > :01:37.to remember all victims of the Westminster attack.
:01:38. > :01:42.And we're taking a look at how the developments are being reported in
:01:43. > :01:53.the papers. One of the most extensive police
:01:54. > :01:57.investigations of recent years has made swift progress today,
:01:58. > :01:59.following the terror attack The attacker has been identified
:02:00. > :02:17.and the Islamic State group has said The attacker was named
:02:18. > :02:19.as Khalid Masood, He was 52, and lived
:02:20. > :02:23.in the West Midlands. He had come to the attention
:02:24. > :02:25.of the intelligence There have been eight arrests so far
:02:26. > :02:30.- five men and three women - Tributes have been paid to those
:02:31. > :02:33.who lost their lives, still in hospital.
:02:34. > :02:39.Five are critically ill. Tonight, we'll have the latest
:02:40. > :02:41.on the police investigation, and we'll hear from some of those
:02:42. > :02:44.caught up in yesterday's events. First, we join our
:02:45. > :02:52.Special Correspondent, Well the police have moved back from
:02:53. > :02:57.the flat where they made arrests overnight. Yesterday we saw the face
:02:58. > :03:02.of the attacker, today we know his name, Khalid Masood. He was on the
:03:03. > :03:07.radar. His name was known to the police and to MI5 but they said that
:03:08. > :03:09.they had no information he was planning a terrorist attack, showing
:03:10. > :03:15.just how difficult it is for them to stop this sort of thing. It has been
:03:16. > :03:19.a fast-moving day. Arrests have been made, most of them made here in
:03:20. > :03:25.Birmingham. With a car and a knife he brought
:03:26. > :03:30.terror to Parliament. He is Khalid Masood, a British-born attacker,
:03:31. > :03:33.known to the police with a 20-year criminal record, although not for
:03:34. > :03:38.terrorism. The 52-year-old, responsible for the murder of a
:03:39. > :03:44.policeman, a mother on her way to collect her children, a tourist, and
:03:45. > :03:49.a pensioner. Today, on their knees, the police,
:03:50. > :03:53.slowly, met I can Clarence Housely, searching for evidence. On the same
:03:54. > :03:58.ground where one of their own lay, just a day ago.
:03:59. > :04:01.As they searched outside Parliament, just metres away inside, the Prime
:04:02. > :04:07.Minister spoke. What I can confirm, is that the man
:04:08. > :04:12.was British-born and that some years ago he was once investigated by MI5
:04:13. > :04:16.in relation to concerns about violent extremism. He was a
:04:17. > :04:22.peripheral figure. The case is historic. He was not part of the
:04:23. > :04:27.current intelligence picture. There was no prior intelligence of his
:04:28. > :04:30.intent or of the plot. Intensive investigations continue.
:04:31. > :04:35.So what more is known about Khalid Masood? He was born in Kent, he was
:04:36. > :04:42.most recently living in the West Midlands. He had a range of previous
:04:43. > :04:46.convictions including GB H, possession of offensive weapons and
:04:47. > :04:51.public order offences, the last conviction in 2003 for possession of
:04:52. > :04:54.a knife. He was known by a number of aliases and Khalid Masood is not
:04:55. > :04:59.believed to be the name he was born with. So they are determined to find
:05:00. > :05:03.out everything that they can about the man who murdered PC Keith Palmer
:05:04. > :05:08.in the shadow of Bill Clinton Ben and ran over those just walking on
:05:09. > :05:11.Westminster Bridge. Not just routine police work, this time, it's
:05:12. > :05:16.personal. It is still our belief, which
:05:17. > :05:19.continues to be borne out by the investigation, that this attacker
:05:20. > :05:24.acted alone and was inspired by international terrorism. To be
:05:25. > :05:27.explicit at this stage we have no specific information about further
:05:28. > :05:34.threats to the public. The police's attention on
:05:35. > :05:37.Birmingham, overnight in the Ladywood area, the heavily armed
:05:38. > :05:39.officers searched a flat. The neighbours said it was like a scene
:05:40. > :05:45.from a film. It was like a war, a war down the
:05:46. > :05:50.streets. Like something you see only in movies. I saw it behind my
:05:51. > :05:56.windows on the street. It was very frightening. It was like, you know,
:05:57. > :06:02.what the hell is happening here? Another flat in the Winsome Green
:06:03. > :06:05.area of the city was raided. Neighbours said that they thought
:06:06. > :06:11.that Khalid Masood lived there recently. It is known that the car
:06:12. > :06:18.he turned into a weapon was a rental car that he hired in Birmingham here
:06:19. > :06:23.at Enterprice Cars. With the attacker dead, the focus is on his
:06:24. > :06:26.friends and family, whether they knew about his motivations, his
:06:27. > :06:32.intentions, whether he had help with the attack on Parliament. The police
:06:33. > :06:36.have made arrests in a number of different locations. Three
:06:37. > :06:39.properties were searched in Birmingham and seven people
:06:40. > :06:45.arrested. One woman was arrested in East London. There have been
:06:46. > :06:49.searches in Carmarthenshire, Brighton and south-east London. The
:06:50. > :06:54.eight arrested on suspicion of the preparation of Terrorist Acts. At a
:06:55. > :06:59.house in Luton where it is believed that Khalid Masood lived a few years
:07:00. > :07:02.ago, neighbours described him as a house proud family man.
:07:03. > :07:07.As far as I'm aware he had two children at the time that he was
:07:08. > :07:12.here. They appeared to be primary schoolchildren. He had a people
:07:13. > :07:15.carrier, he was loading the children into the people carrier with child
:07:16. > :07:19.seats. But today he was described
:07:20. > :07:26.differently by the Islamic State. Without providing evidence they said
:07:27. > :07:31.he was one of their soldiers. The police have been tracking Khalid
:07:32. > :07:34.Masood's movements, the man who got into a car and caused terror in
:07:35. > :07:37.Our Home Affairs Correspondent, Daniel Sandford,
:07:38. > :07:45.We mentioned the fact that the investigation is making swift
:07:46. > :07:50.progress. What is your assessment tonight? It is developing fast. We
:07:51. > :07:53.believe that the police visited a hotel in Brighton where they are
:07:54. > :07:57.looking at the fact that Khalid Masood may have spent his last few
:07:58. > :08:02.nights there. That is obviously an important part of the investigation.
:08:03. > :08:06.We believe that Khalid Masood's partner was arrested in Stratford in
:08:07. > :08:10.East London, so clearly she is possibly going to be an important
:08:11. > :08:15.source of information for the police but at the same time, these
:08:16. > :08:20.fast-movements, the developments in terms of the investigation are
:08:21. > :08:24.marred by tragedy and the news tonight that this 75-year-old man
:08:25. > :08:29.who was being maintained on life support in a London hospital has in
:08:30. > :08:35.fact died after life support was withdrawn. As I understand it he has
:08:36. > :08:42.relatives overseas it had taken time to contact them. But the life
:08:43. > :08:48.support has now been withdrawn. This is an investigation, which, as often
:08:49. > :08:52.happens with the counter-terrorism investigations, that they expand
:08:53. > :08:55.outwards. Eight people are in custody, each could develop leads,
:08:56. > :09:00.so the investigation is still really at early stages. One thing I should
:09:01. > :09:05.mention it is almost certain that Khalid Masood is not the birth name
:09:06. > :09:07.of the man who actually carried out this attack.
:09:08. > :09:15.Thank you very much, Daniel Sandford.
:09:16. > :09:18.Members of the House of Commons stood in silence today,
:09:19. > :09:19.to remember those who died yesterday,
:09:20. > :09:21.including PC Keith Palmer, who lost his life defending
:09:22. > :09:23.parliament and those who work there.
:09:24. > :09:25.He'd been a police officer for 15 years.
:09:26. > :09:27.The Prime Minister said he was "every inch a hero",
:09:28. > :09:29.and his actions would never be forgotten.
:09:30. > :09:31.Our Home Editor, Mark Easton, reports on the loss
:09:32. > :09:35.At 9:33am this morning, a minute's silence for PC Keith Palmer.
:09:36. > :09:40.48 years old, a husband and a father, who went to work
:09:41. > :09:50.Boxing instructor and former soldier Tony Davies saw the knife attack
:09:51. > :09:53.as he left a function at the Houses of Parliament yesterday afternoon,
:09:54. > :10:01.and immediately ran to Keith Palmer's aid.
:10:02. > :10:05.He brandished two knives, I had seen, attacking
:10:06. > :10:15.That's the decision I took to then leap the fence and try and give
:10:16. > :10:20.Yes, but it was a split-second decision and people
:10:21. > :10:29.Tony Davies was once in the same army regiment as Lee Rigby,
:10:30. > :10:36.the Fusilier stabbed to death in a terrorist attack in 2013.
:10:37. > :10:39.He remembers how no-one went to his colleague's aid that day
:10:40. > :10:42.and thinks that is part of the reason why he ran
:10:43. > :10:47.I was the first person to approach Keith and I noticed the head
:10:48. > :10:52.wound and I am shouting, "medic, get an ambulance."
:10:53. > :10:55.The biggest wound was in his rib cage.
:10:56. > :11:01.I tried to stem the blood flow with my rain jacket.
:11:02. > :11:05.I checked his pulse, to make sure he was breathing.
:11:06. > :11:11.I said, "Come on, Keith, stay with us, son, stay with us."
:11:12. > :11:17.I'm sure the professionals who were there on the scene
:11:18. > :11:27.He's being called a hero, some are saying he should be given
:11:28. > :11:31.How do you feel about the man you tried to save?
:11:32. > :11:36.Well, not a normal guy, he was protecting and sort
:11:37. > :11:39.of being an adviser on one of our most historic assets of this
:11:40. > :11:43.great nation and he is expecting just to do his normal
:11:44. > :11:48.daily shift and go home to have his tea with his family.
:11:49. > :11:52.A lot of people would regard what you did yesterday as quite
:11:53. > :11:59.Please, I don't want anyone to feel that.
:12:00. > :12:05.One of the core values in the army is selfless commitment.
:12:06. > :12:10.Maybe I showed a bit of that yesterday but just...
:12:11. > :12:17.It was frustrating more than anything that Keith
:12:18. > :12:31.Police Constable Keith Palmer symbolises the selfless public
:12:32. > :12:34.service and sacrifice vital to a civilised society.
:12:35. > :12:36.He was unarmed, guarding the epicentre of our democracy
:12:37. > :12:38.and epitomising the delicate balance between our security
:12:39. > :12:56.Two other victims of yesterday's attack have been named.
:12:57. > :12:58.Aysha Frade lived in London with her husband and
:12:59. > :13:01.And Kurt Cochrane, an American citizen,
:13:02. > :13:04.was in London with his wife to celebrate their 25th anniversary.
:13:05. > :13:06.Some 40 people from 11 different countries were injured,
:13:07. > :13:15.Sarah Campbell reports on the victims.
:13:16. > :13:18.A mother on the school run, mown down in broad daylight.
:13:19. > :13:20.Aysha Frade was 43 years old and leaves behind a husband
:13:21. > :13:26.Friends and neighbours have been paying tribute to her.
:13:27. > :13:29.She was just a lovely person with two lovely children.
:13:30. > :13:44.You leave your kids, go to school, and then to pick them up,
:13:45. > :13:47.She worked at a college near Westminster Bridge

:14:31. > :14:31.His family said they are heartbroken.
:14:32. > :14:33.The couple's next-door neighbour said Kurt was friends with everyone.
:14:34. > :14:38.This is going to be a sad, tough time for everyone
:14:39. > :14:49.I think of Melissa and what she will have to face in the next little
:14:50. > :14:52.while and I'm sure the neighbourhood will gather around her and help
:14:53. > :14:58.A 75-year-old man who had been in hospital following the attack,
:14:59. > :15:06.The people who were injured came from 11 different countries

:16:53. > :17:00.What are the officials they are saying about the condition of some
:17:01. > :17:04.people being treated? It seems that 20 patients are still being treated
:17:05. > :17:10.for a range of injuries at the in central London. The largest single
:17:11. > :17:17.group is here at St Mary's in Paddington. Others are in Chelsea
:17:18. > :17:22.and Westminster and Kings College Hospital. As of this morning, seven
:17:23. > :17:29.were said to be in a critical condition. We were not told anything
:17:30. > :17:34.else. But now sadly it is six, as one of them died this evening. We
:17:35. > :17:40.don't know precisely which hospitals those six-hour in. We know they are
:17:41. > :17:45.critically ill as of this evening. In total, 29 people needed hospital
:17:46. > :17:50.treatment. Some of them were discharged today. As we have been
:17:51. > :17:54.hearing, they were from several nationalities. 12 of them were
:17:55. > :17:58.British. And of those, three were police officers who had been to an
:17:59. > :18:02.awards ceremony, were crossing Westminster Bridge yesterday
:18:03. > :18:06.afternoon and got caught up in the attack as the car ploughed through
:18:07. > :18:09.people on the bridge. All those three, two are said to be in a
:18:10. > :18:12.serious condition. Thank you. At Westminster, Home Secretary Amber
:18:13. > :18:14.Rudd has told the BBC that it would be wrong to see yesterday's
:18:15. > :18:17.attack as a failure She's spoke as members
:18:18. > :18:21.of parliament returned to work, where they heard the Prime Minister
:18:22. > :18:34.declare that they would never waver There are new images to light of the
:18:35. > :18:35.moment the Prime Minister was rushed from Parliament when the attack
:18:36. > :18:35.happened. Our Political Editor,
:18:36. > :18:38.Laura Kuennsberg, reports on the way parliament has responded
:18:39. > :18:40.to the attack. In the car, the Prime Minister's
:18:41. > :18:43.bodyguards hurrying her to safety. When what was really
:18:44. > :18:51.happening just wasn't clear. It was anything
:18:52. > :18:54.but just another day. This morning, Westminster
:18:55. > :18:58.a crime scene. But Parliament today
:18:59. > :19:01.was determined its traditions would The Speaker's daily
:19:02. > :19:12.procession, arcane as ever. MPs cramming in where they had been
:19:13. > :19:20.locked down for hours. Yet first, to show
:19:21. > :19:23.respect with silence. But yards from yesterday's escape,

:19:55. > :19:56.for themselves the It is in these actions,
:19:57. > :20:03.millions of acts of normality, that we find the best response
:20:04. > :20:07.to terrorism, a response that denies our enemies their victory,
:20:08. > :20:11.that refuses to let them win, MPs queued to speak to mark
:20:12. > :20:21.the sacrifice of PC Palmer, killed trying to stop

:20:44. > :20:48.months after being elected. Argument normally
:20:49. > :20:50.fills the air here. It behoves us all not to rush
:20:51. > :20:57.to judgment but to wait for the police to establish
:20:58. > :21:01.the facts, to stay united in our communities and not allow

:27:42. > :27:46.or elsewhere in Europe, sometimes governments have said, we have to
:27:47. > :27:51.look at new ways of countering this thread. We have to look at new ways
:27:52. > :27:55.to respond. In contrast, the government position today has been
:27:56. > :27:59.very much that we must not do anything knee jerk. Talking to the
:28:00. > :28:02.Home Secretary earlier, she was clear she doesn't believe new
:28:03. > :28:08.legislation or an injection of new resources are the kinds of solutions
:28:09. > :28:11.that are required. The government's message has been very much getting
:28:12. > :28:19.on and trying very hard to get back to business as usual. As the Home
:28:20. > :28:23.Secretary has suggested, we may have too, in 2017, despite our best

:41:57. > :42:00.Yard looks back to see if anything could have been done better. I think
:42:01. > :42:07.it would have been hard to prevent the loss of life on the bridge. If
:42:08. > :42:10.somebody chooses to mow people down on the bridge, it is hard to
:42:11. > :42:14.understand that. And the intelligence will have to look to

:42:20. > :42:22.that could be looked at, the security at the palace of
:42:23. > :42:27.Westminster. It should not have been possible, really, for a man, armed
:42:28. > :42:31.with a knife, to have breached the external security of Westminster and
:42:32. > :42:35.kill one of their own officers. They will have to look again at the kind
:42:36. > :42:38.of arms security there is on the outside of the palace of
