Loud bangs similar to gunfire were heard outside Britain's Parliament on Wednesday, and two people were seen being treated inside the gates by medical staff, according to a Reuters witness.

A parliamentary clerk told Reuters two people had been shot, but there was no official confirmation from the police. A Reuters photographer said he saw at least a dozen people injured on Westminster Bridge near the parliament building.

The Speaker of the House of Commons suspended the session as police responded to the incident.

Journalists at the Parliament building said they were told to stay in their offices.
