London Terror Attack May have Targeted British PM

Indications have emerged that the British Prime Minister, Theresa May, could have been the primary target of Wednesday’s terror attack on the British Parliament in London.
This suggestion is being fueled by the emergence of a video showing the moment May was being rushed to her bomb proof car with lone attacker, Khalid Masood, just 100 yards away.
Shaky eyewitness video, first obtained by the Sun, shows the Prime Minister being rushed to her Jaguar XJ by her bodyguards in the moments after Masood went on his rampage.
The shocking footage revealed the fact that Masood had managed to get within 100 feet of the Prime Minister.
Sources said there was “clear air” between the spot that Masood was gunned down by armed police and the Prime Minister’s car.
They added that, if there had been more then one attacker, the situation could have been much worse.

The footage also reveals that in the panic, May ran in the wrong direction as the terror attack unfolded.
It is only when one of her armed security detail yells at her to “get in the car” and opens the silver car’s door that she goes in the right direction.
The video shows May momentarily losing her bearings, before being steered back to the car by her aides.
At the same time the Prime Minister’s bodyguards can be seen drawing automatic weapons and standing on guard in the heart of the House of Commons.
May was then driven off at high speed to the safety of Downing Street
A witness claimed that May’s car initially tried to drive out through the direction the attack took place, but police stopped her from exiting that way.
