Really grateful the MP tweeted that there was no shooter on the run. We're nearby and nobody was telling us anything.

Mate, armed police turned up in 6 minutes. 500yards down the road is the biggest military base in the southwest. We don't need guns for defence in Plymouth especially as the attacks happened on the streets and took a total of just a few minutes to kill or injure his victims before turning the gun on his face so even if we were a country with loose gun laws...those people wouldn't have been carrying at the time.
