🔗 Share this article Two Detentions in the Aftermath of Heathrow ‘Pepper Spray’ Incident This incident caused the partial closure of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the T3 parking area. An additional two individuals have been arrested related to a theft at London's Heathrow Airport where over twenty individuals were injured by a substance believed to be an irritant spray, as stated by police. A man, 24, was arrested in the Lambeth area on suspicion of robbery and assault and a woman, 23 was arrested on suspicion of conspiring to commit a robbery. They both are still being held, the force said. These detentions come after an investigation into an assault at the multi-storey car park at Terminal 3 on Sunday. Prior to the incident, a pair of female travelers were robbed of their suitcases upon exiting a parking garage elevator. A toddler aged three was one of the injured during the incident. Five people were taken to the hospital for medical care and have since been released. Officers arrested a man in his thirties on suspicion of theft and assault close to the location. He was subsequently released pending further inquiries as the investigation proceeds. Police were called at approximately 8:10 in the morning GMT following reports of a number of people injured by a noxious substance believed to be pepper spray. The attack - an event that police said was a standalone incident and not considered terrorism - caused delays to rail services and the partial closure of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the Terminal 3 car park for a short time.
