    Streatham terror attack
    Streatham terror incident: Suspect wore hoax bomb device during 'Islamist-related' attack. The man was gunned down at around 2pm on Sunday in Streatham High Road after stabbing a man and a woman - the man remains in a life-threatening condition. A third victim, a woman, suffered minor injuries said to have been caused by glass that smashed when a police officer fired his weapon. Police stand guard outside a Bail Hostel in Streatham where it is believed the suspect was living prior to be shot dead by police.

    Rolling Stones headline the disastrous 1969 Altamont Festival
    Rolling Stones Tour Manager Sam Cutler attempts to control the crowd. The organizers of Altamont had also put together the relatively peaceful three day Festival at Woodstock, New York the previous August. Scheduled to triumphantly end the Stones' first US tour in three years and anticipated as a sequel to the successful three day Woodstock, New York festival of August 1969, Altamont was unofficially billed as "Woodstock West". Approximately 300,000 people showed up expecting a peaceful day of outdoor music. However, violence broke out early in the day, as Hells Angels bikers beat back concertgoers near the stage. Hired by the Stones as "security" following a similar practice with a British motorcycle gang in England the previous summer, The Angels used pool cues, full cans of beer and steel-toed boots to keep the crowds away from the stage and their motorcycles. Some acts, including the Grateful Dead, canceled their segments due to the negative atmosphere. Captured on film for the movie "Gimme Shelter", the day long concert was interrupted frequently due to drug-induced crowd behavior, scuffles and injuries. The violence reached its peak during the Stones performance when an Angel named Alan Passaro was seen stabbing a black man (Meredith Hunter) in the crowd. Hunter was at the concert with his white girlfriend; he is seen pulling a hand gun on camera prior to his being stabbed. Hunter was pronounced dead at the scene and Passaro was prosecuted but acquitted in 1971. (Sam Emerson/POLARIS) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS)

    Carlos Santana performs the first set of the day. Scheduled to triumphantly end the Stones' first US tour in three years and anticipated as a sequel to the successful three day Woodstock, New York festival of August 1969, Altamont was unofficially billed as "Woodstock West". Approximately 300,000 people showed up expecting a peaceful day of outdoor music. However, violence broke out early in the day, as Hells Angels bikers beat back concertgoers near the stage. Hired by the Stones as "security" following a similar practice with a British motorcycle gang in England the previous summer, The Angels used pool cues, full cans of beer and steel-toed boots to keep the crowds away from the stage and their motorcycles. Some acts, including the Grateful Dead, canceled their segments due to the negative atmosphere. Captured on film for the movie "Gimme Shelter", the day long concert was interrupted frequently due to drug-induced crowd behavior, scuffles and injuries. The violence reached its peak during the Stones performance when an Angel named Alan Passaro was seen stabbing a black man (Meredith Hunter) in the crowd. Hunter was at the concert with his white girlfriend; he is seen pulling a hand gun on camera prior to his being stabbed. Hunter was pronounced dead at the scene and Passaro was prosecuted but acquitted in 1971. (Sam Emerson/POLARIS) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS)
