Harry Pitts (27 June 1861 – 30 April 1897) was the first person to be killed by a terrorist attack on the London Underground. Pitts died of injuries received from a bomb which exploded at Aldersgate Station (now Barbican) on 26 April 1897. The bomb was planted by Russian anarchists in revenge for one of their members being given a seven-year prison sentence. At an inquest into Pitts death a verdict of "wilful murder against person or persons unknown" was recorded.
