Blazing jeep driven into British airport terminal

01 Jul, 2007

A blazing Cherokee jeep smashed into the main terminal building at Scotland's Glasgow Airport on Saturday, police said, a day after two car bombings were foiled in central London. Police said two people were arrested in Saturday's incident at about 3:15 pm (1415 GMT). The airport was closed afterwards.
There were no reports of any injuries. Britain's new Prime Minister Gordon Brown was "being kept aware" of the situation, his office said. Eyewitness James Edgar said barriers prevented the jeep from completely entering the terminal building.
