We are reading some reports on twitter that Whitechapel Mosque has been attacked. We are seeing very high tweeting from there but to be honest tweeting is surging around the city as the police lose control.
We can't confirm that anything has happened there, but the area around the Mosque (within about 500 meters) is seeing a lot of tweeting which would indicate some kind of event.

Muslim men came out of the Mosque, stood in face of rioters w/o attacking or confronting them. Just standing there like "We are here blud".
