No Borders... Here's One Of The Reasons.

I agree, the reports are that five were injured.

Quote:'..."A few people got trampled on on the escalator. There was screaming.
"An old woman got trampled on. I had to carry a woman up the stairs.
I think she was in shock to be honest. She couldn't walk, shaking."

He said he saw a Tube worker pick something up that was on fire and
extinguish it but added: "I think that was secondary rather than the cause...'
SOURCE:

The MSM are saying a portable short-circuiting power-drill battery started smouldering
and was extinguished by a Tube Station employee.
Yet, the article from the BBC website states it was an 'explosion'!

Me thinks it was a nothing-story built up to keep the 'terrorist' scare in vogue.

On the plus-side, the 1958 'Quatermass and the Pit' movie was broadcast on
the SciFi channel last night, presumably out of sympathy!

Quote:Man arrested over Southgate Tube station explosion

'A 23-year-old man has been arrested after an explosion at a north London Tube station left five people injured.
Witnesses described smelling "burning rubber" and seeing "six-foot flames" at the entrance to Southgate
Underground station in Enfield on Tuesday evening.
Police believe the explosion was caused by a faulty drill battery.

The man was held on suspicion of an act likely to cause an explosion to injure or damage property, and endangering
safety on the railway. The station was shut and a cordon set up after the explosion occurred at about 19:00 BST.

London Ambulance Service said they treated...' -blah-blah-blah

Quote:'...London Mayor Sadiq Khan said the explosion had been "confirmed as non-suspicious" and praised the
emergency services "for a swift and professional response".
The arrested man, who is from Enfield, has been released under investigation pending further enquiries...'

on conviction on indictment shall be liable to imprisonment for life.
