Description

The 2017 Finsbury Park attack was a terror-attack in Finsbury Park, London, England, on 19 June 2017. A van was driven into pedestrians in Finsbury Park, London, by Darren Osborne, causing one death and injuring at least nine people. This occurred near the Muslim Welfare House, 100 yards from Finsbury Park Mosque. A man who had earlier collapsed and was receiving first aid died at the scene.
The incident was investigated by counter-terrorism police as a terrorist attack. On 23 June, Darren Osborne of Cardiff was charged with terrorism-related murder and attempted murder. In early February 2018 at Woolwich Crown Court, he was found guilty on both counts and was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Three attacks—described by Prime Minister Theresa May as "...bound together by the single, evil ideology of Islamist extremism"—had occurred in the UK since March 2017: at Westminster on 22 March, in Manchester on 22 May, and at London Bridge on 3 June. Following these, there were increased reports of revenge attacks against Muslims, and mosques had been targeted as a response to recent Islamist attacks.
