Vid of press conference struck me a little odd.

Police woman is a Detective Chief Superintendent. As a Londoner it is unusual for a detective to be in uniform.

Normally a conference like this would be handled by a senior officer in the uniform branch.

Secondly she emphasized that they were not treating it as a terror event, so why mention terrorism?

The three officers seemed slightly 'off' to me something not quite right about them imo, can't quite put my finger on it.
