Wikimedia Commons

Counter-terror police have arrested a 22-year-old British man in Westminster on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts, linked to the 27 September scare near RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire. He is the seventh person detained; nobody has been charged, and the six others were bailed. The arrest comes days after the US pulled its bombers from the base, citing threats, while officers pursue multiple lines of enquiry.
