More arrests in London and Rome: London, Rome Arrest Suspected 7/21 Bombers.
LONDON - Raids in London and Rome on Friday rounded up the last of the four suspected attackers from the failed July 21 transit bombings in Britain, officials and media reports said.
Two of the suspects were picked up in west London following raids by heavily armed police, the reports said. London police did not confirm their identities.
Video broadcast by ITV News/Daily Mail in London showed two men identified as bombing suspects stripped to the waist emerging at gunpoint on a balcony of one apartment after police apparently fired tear gas inside.
Italian police in Rome arrested Osman Hussain, a naturalized British citizen from Somalia, as part of an ongoing investigation in the bombings, said Interior Minister Giuseppe Pisanu. Hussain was “the fourth attacker,” he said.
Police raided two residences Friday in west London, arresting two men at one address and one at another, a Metropolitan Police spokesman said on customary condition of anonymity.
