LONDON (CNN) — A vehicle hit pedestrians in London and there are “a number of casualties being worked on at the scene,” according to authorities.

The Associated Press is tweeting that the Muslim Council of Britain says a van “run over worshippers” as they were leaving a London Mosque.

London’s Metropolitan Police said officers were called just after midnight Sunday to an incident on Seven Sisters Road.

“There has been one person arrested.  Inquiries continue.  More information will be released when confirmed,” police said.

London Ambulance tweeted: “We have sent a number of resources to an incident in Seven Sisters Road. More information will follow when we have it.”
