Met police say 19-year-old man held at Westminster magistrates court, where three other men charged over attack
A fourth person has been arrested in connection with the arson attack on Jewish volunteer ambulances in north-west London, the Metropolitan police has said.
The force said the 19-year-old man was arrested on Saturday morning at Westminster magistrates court, where three other men were charged over the arson attack.
“While attending the hearing of three other suspects, officers recognised the man as being involved in the arson attack. He was arrested for arson with intent to endanger life and taken into custody,” the Met said.
Hamza Iqbal, 20, and Rehan Khan, 19, both British nationals from Leyton, and a 17-year-old boy, a dual British and Pakistani national from Walthamstow, were charged with arson with intent to damage property and being reckless as to whether life would be endangered. They did not enter pleas and were remanded in custody during the hearing at Westminster magistrates court on Saturday.
