"People were left with cuts and grazes from trying to flee the scene"
"There was lots of panic"
Alex Littlefield, 24, a City worker, said: "I was walking around the corner to the Parsons Green Tube station, and I saw the raised platform with everyone running and looking upset.
"I saw police officers, fire brigade, and telling people to get back.
"I saw masses of people and armed police. There were lots of very, very distressed people. We've been pushed right back now."
