Capital falls eerily quiet for a poignant minute's silence as hundreds attend vigil for victims of the London Bridge terror attack



Sadiq Khan has led a vigil of hundreds of Londoners (pictured inset) in remembering those who died following Saturday night's terror attack in the capital. The Mayor of London was joined by senior officers from the Metropolitan Police, as well as paramedics and fire crews, for an emotional service in Potters Field Park, near City Hall (shown main). The Archbishop of Canterbury was also on hand to pay his respects to the victims of the attack, in which seven were killed and almost 50 were injured. The evening vigil came after thousands of commuters and workers stopped near the scene of the attack in London Bridge and Borough market to lay flowers and stand in solemn silence earlier in the day.
