They released the basic details about what happened and where just before 10am. There was nothing else to say at the time presumably becaysr that's all they could say. 

Other details such as sequence of events will be being pieced together. Details of victims and the person arrested take a bit longer to make public.

I don't get this attitude of 'I must be told everything straight away'. Why? I'm as intrigued as the next person but I'd rather get on with my life and wait to hear what the police have to say when they're ready.

I do think there is a link between public safety and police transparency also the value of PIOs for situations like this. Rather than declaring a "major incident" whilst not telling the public what exactly that incident is...are we talking bombs, knives, someone with a gun or running people with down with a vehicle.
This is an interesting article about media relations

In fact they should be putting the likes of Martine Croxall, Annita McVeigh and Geeta Guru-Murthy on seed dial when this sort of story happens (since as far as i'm aware they are still employed by the BBC.)

My ex was a paramedic and took on a role which included taking a leading role when a major incident was declared. Part of the training he undertook was keeping the public informed as especially in this age of social media rumours quickly spread which can then create fear and fear panic in the public and communicating with the media is vital. I believe part of the plans included someone who’s primary role was to keep the media briefed. 

I remember in once instance when there was concerns about a tidal surge and major flooding he was silver or gold command (I will admit I could never remember what all the abbreviations and names). I texted to ask how it was going and hen said he’d just done a media update. 

In a situation like this, especially at that time of day when people would be preparing to go to work or school people need to be kept informed.
