Photo of a man fleeing London attack with beer in hand goes viral

Man fleeing London attack with beer in hand becomes unlikely symbol of London pride

A young man who fled yesterday's terrorist attacks with a pint of beer in hand has become something of an internet hero.

The photo, which has been retweeted over 28,000 times, features the man fleeing from the scene with a pint of beer in hand. For some, the photo provided a moment of profoundly dark comedy on a day otherwise entirely colored by tragedy.
