‘The Tube suddenly filled up with loads of people running’

Rob Lowe, 33, was in the carriage when armed officers shot the man dead.

“The Tube was stationary and then a man came on who I presume now to be a plainclothes policeman, but at the time I didn’t know who he was,” said Mr Lowe from Balham, south London.

“He was looking quite shifty, getting up and sitting back down again. I felt a bit awkward around him. And then he seemed to shout at some people on the other platform who then all came rushing.
