New video of moment police shot Woolwich suspects

Video obtained by the Mirror shows the moment two terror suspects ran at police in Woolwich yesterday.

The amateur video, which appears to have been taken from a nearby block of flats, sees a man run at police before shots ring out and he falls to the ground.

The footage appears to show the man dropping a knife or weapon during his charge but he still clearly brandishing a second weapon as he approaches the officers.

The second suspect can be seen running along a fence before also confronting the officers as more shots are fired.

The armed officers then surround the two prone men.

In total eight shots can be heard. Onlookers can also be heard screaming.

Warning: This video contains images of two men being shot by police.
