Two more people have been arrested 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 law enforcement.
A man, 24, was arrested in Lambeth on suspicion of robbery and assault and a woman, 23 was arrested for suspected conspiring to commit a robbery. They both remain in custody, authorities confirmed.
These detentions come after a probe into an attack at the multi-level parking garage at Heathrow's Terminal 3 this past Sunday. Before the attack, two women had stolen from them their luggage after getting out of a parking garage elevator.
A toddler aged three was one of the those hurt in the event. Five people went to hospital for treatment and were later discharged.
Officers detained a man in his thirties for suspected robbery and assault close to the location. He was subsequently released under investigation while inquiries continue.
Authorities were alerted at approximately 08:10 GMT following reports of several people injured by an irritating chemical believed to be pepper spray.
The assault - which authorities stated was isolated and not being treated as an act of terror - resulted in delays to rail services and the partial closure of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the Terminal 3 car park briefly.
