A police boat careened into Westminster Bridge in central London, sending five officers plunging into the Thames—each needing medical help as paramedics raced to the scene under the watch of a hovering chopper. Witnesses reported high-speed boats and a deafening crash, with one Chilean tourist seeing three people thrown into the water, one appearing critically hurt. Emergency crews and the Port of London Authority scrambled to respond, shutting down traffic as crowds watched. The Met is now investigating the cause, with no civilians involved—but the incident has raised serious questions about safety in police river operations.
