I had just left the globe last night, making my way with friends to borough market, got to clink street (just after 10) saw a few women with partners crying (assumed a post pub fallout) 2 mins later a group of girls tell us to turn around and leave the area because people are being stabbed. We decided that unlikely as it was, we could just cross on Southwark bridge.
As we did so there were unmistakeabley 5/6 gunshots in quick succession. Seemed to go deathly quiet and hair was completely on end.
We were never super close to the bridge and people have been seriously hurt/scared for their lives. But it was still a pretty surreal and eerie experience.
