Controlled blasts reported at Glasgow hospital
Jul. 2, 2007

 

Authorities suspect the two men who rammed an explosives-laden vehicle into Glasgow's airport on Saturday are the same people who parked two car bombs in central London a day earlier, security sources told CNN. The development on Monday came as the bomb squad was called to the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Glasgow where one of seven people arrested was being treated. British police said on Monday that after a series of nationwide raids they had arrested two more people as part of their investigation into the failed terror attacks that have put the country on its highest state of alert. The two were arrested the previous night in the Paisley area of Glasgow, police said. The men were aged 28 and 25 and believed not to be of Scottish origin. That brings the total number of people arrested to seven. Other than one suspect who was severely burned, no one was seriously hurt in Saturday's incident at Glasgow. The car bombs in London did not detonate.
