Two individuals are now facing charges in connection with a suitcase robbery where a believed to be pepper spray caused injuries at the major London air hub.
Tyrone Richards, 31, and Anton Clarke-Butcher, 24, are accused of two robbery charges and two counts of administering a noxious substance, authorities have stated.
These accusations come after an probe of an attack at the multi-storey car park at Terminal 3 on Sunday. Prior to the attack, two women were robbed of their luggage taken after exiting a car park lift, according to law enforcement.
A three-year-old girl was among those injured in the event. Five people were taken to a medical facility and were eventually allowed to go home.
This event – which authorities stated was not part of a series and not considered a terror-related act – led to train delays and the temporary blocking of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the T3 parking area for a short time.
