LONDON - Police in London's bustling nightclub and theater district on
Friday defused a car bomb that could have killed hundreds, after an
ambulance crew spotted smoke coming from a Mercedes filled with a lethal mix
of gasoline, propane and nails, authorities said.
The bomb near Piccadilly Circus was powerful enough to have caused
"significant injury or loss of life" - possibly killing hundreds, British
anti-terror police chief Peter Clarke said.
A big red bow with a note attached said: "Welcome Prime Minister Gordon
Brown."
It was signed, "Your Frens From The Religion of Peece."
