7 year oldA TERRORIST explosion on a London train has left commuters with serious burns and sent hundreds of others running for their lives, causing a panicked stampede.
The Friday morning commute in Britain’s capital descended into chaos after a “fireball flew down a carriage” at Parsons Green station, in London’s southwest.
Police are treating the incident as terror-related, as images emerge of the suspected improvised explosive device.
The blast, which occurred at 8.20am local time (5.20pm AEST) came from a plastic bucket inside a shopping bag, left by the tube carriage door.
Images on social media show several wires coming from the flaming container, which it appears failed to detonate in full.
