This is AP News Minute.


British police arrested a dozen people Sunday in a widening investigation 1 after attackers using a van and large knives turned a Saturday night into a bloodbath and killed seven people in the heart of London. Shortly after the attack, President Donald Trump 2 weighed in on Twitter, saying "we need the Travel Ban as an extra level of safety."


Ariana Grande returned to the Manchester stage two weeks after a suicide bombing killed 22 victims at her concert in the same city. 60,000 fans attended the star-studded One Love Manchester concert.


A Venezuelan musician and activist 3 performed a concert in Caracas. The event was dubbed 4 "the street concert for life" and was meant to be a protest against the regime of embattled President Nicolas Maduro.


People in the UK have responded to the deadly London Bridge attack with sorrow and distinctly British humor, hailing a man seen walking away from the mayhem holding a pint 5 of beer as a tongue-in-cheek symbol of defiance 6.
