Two more people are now in custody in connection with a robbery at London's Heathrow Airport in which over twenty individuals sustained injuries by what is thought to be pepper spray, according to police.
A man, 24, was taken into custody in Lambeth for suspected robbery and assault and a woman, 23 was detained for suspected conspiring to commit a robbery. Both individuals remain in custody, the force said.
These detentions follow an investigation into an assault at the multi-storey car park at Terminal 3 this past Sunday. Prior to the incident, two women were robbed of their luggage after getting out of a car park lift.
A three-year-old girl was one of the those hurt in the event. Five people went to hospital for medical care and were later discharged.
Police arrested a man in his thirties for suspected theft and assault near the location. He was subsequently released under investigation while inquiries continue.
Authorities were called at approximately 08:10 GMT following reports of several individuals injured by a noxious substance thought to be pepper spray.
The attack - an event that police said was a standalone incident and not considered an act of terror - resulted in delays to rail services and the partial closure of the main airport tunnel and the T3 parking facility briefly.
