LONDON: UK police said Friday they had charged two young men and a teenage boy, following an attempted arson attack on the offices of Persian-language outlet Iran International.
London’s Met police said Oisin McGuinness, 21, and Nathan Dunn, 19, both of Watford, northwest of London, and a 16-year-old boy from north London were all charged with arson with intent to endanger life.
McGuinness was also charged with dangerous driving.
All three are British nationals and are due to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Friday, police said.
The force had announced their arrests Thursday following the incident the previous evening in northwest London, when “an ignited container” was thrown into the premises housing Iran International.
