Police Make 2nd Arrest in London Bombings

07/23/2005

LONDON (AP) - A second man was arrested in London on Saturday in connection with this week’s attempted transit bombings. Scotland Yard said the man was arrested in Stockwell, the south London neighborhood where another suspect was detained Friday and another man was fatally shot by police in a subway station.

The first suspect, who has not been named, was being questioned at a high-security London police station.

Police are mounting a huge manhunt for the attackers who tried to bomb three subway trains and a bus on Thursday, two weeks after 56 people were killed in four suicide bombings that also targeted the London transit system.

On Friday police released images of four suspected attackers and appealed to the public for information.
