Two Individuals Accused Regarding Heathrow ‘Pepper Spray’ Attack

Two men have been charged following a luggage theft where a believed to be capsaicin spray led to people being hurt at London's Heathrow Airport.

Tyrone Richards, 31, and Anton Clarke-Butcher, 24, have both been charged with two counts of robbery and two counts of using a harmful chemical, as confirmed by court officials.

These accusations come after an probe of an assault at the multi-storey car park at Heathrow's Terminal Three on Sunday. Prior to the attack, two female travelers had their luggage taken after exiting a car park lift, according to law enforcement.

A three-year-old girl was caught up in the incident during the incident. A total of five individuals required hospital care and were later discharged.

The incident – described by police as was not part of a series and deemed non-terroristic – caused train delays and the partial closure of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the Terminal 3 car park for a short time.
