A burning car hurtled into Glasgow Airport this morning, and 2 men were arrested on scene in connection with terrorism, and they believe to be connected with the car bomb they found in London 2 days ago.

The UK has been placed on its highest level of terrorism alert after an attack on Glasgow Airport was linked to two car bombs found in London.

Two men were arrested after ramming a burning car into the airport’s main terminal, a day after police thwarted two attempted bombings in the capital.

Police said the incident was being treated as terror related.

Later, two more arrests were made on the M6 in Cheshire in connection with the two incidents.

Anti-terror police from the Metropolitan Police’s Counter Terrorism Command assisted by officers from the West Midlands Counter Terrorism Unit made the arrests, Scotland Yard said.

Threat imminent? Very bothersome, and to think the attacks are happening outside of London too makes it even harder to determine where to concentrate the emergency services’ strengths.
