The London Bridge terrorists, who killed eight people and injured 48 others, were lawfully shot dead by police, a jury has ruled.
Khuram Butt, 27, Rachid Redouane, 30, and Youssef Zaghba, 22, mowed down pedestrians on the bridge before stabbing random members of the public around Borough Market.
They were armed with ceramic knives and had fake suicide belts strapped around their waists during the marauding attack on the evening of June 3 2017.
The rampage was halted after less than 10 minutes when the attackers confronted three armed police in Stoney Street.
The Old Bailey heard that the officers shouting warnings and opened fire as Butt, Redouane and Zaghba came at them.
In the hail of bullets, a man in the nearby Wheatsheaf pub was hit by a stray round but survived.
Fearing Butt and Redouane could still detonate explosive devices as they lay injured, the police officers shot at them again, jurors were told. A bomb disposal expert told the court he only realised the suicide belts were fake after he cut them off the dead bodies and held them up.
A separate inquest concluded victims Xavier Thomas, 45, Chrissy Archibald, 30, Sara Zelenak, 21, James McMullan, 32, Kirsty Boden, 28, Alexandre Pigeard, 26, Sebastien Belanger, 36, and Ignacio Echeverria, 39, were unlawfully killed.
