Arrests Made in Antisemitic Arson Attack on Jewish Charity Ambulances

0:00On April 1st, counter-terrorism cops just napped two men in a boy over that arson hit on Jewish charity ambulances in Golders Green, North London. We're talking a 19-year-old man, a 20-year-old man, and a 17-year-old boy, all pinched early Wednesday on suspicion of plotting arson. That could endanger lives. The attack torched four vehicles from Hotsola, Northwest, a volunteer group handling free medical rides for the community. This went down in the early hours of March 23rd, right near the Machike Hadath, synagogue, on Highfield Road. Holmes and East London got searched that afternoon, with the two men being British nationals and the boy holding dual British Pakistani citizenship, earlier, two older guys, H-47 and 45, were grabbed but cut loose on bail last Thursday. Folks in the Jewish community are still on edge, especially heading into Passover, and police get that loud and clear. Doctors say support from locals has been huge since the fire, and they're pushing hard to reassure everyone that justice is coming.

1:03Investigators spotted at least three people on CCTV from the jump, so these arrests line up. It's not tagged as terrorism yet, but counter-terrorism's running point, treating it as straight-up anti-submiticate. They've ramped up patrols across London hotspots to shield vulnerable spots and shut down any more trouble. With these suspects and custody and extra eyes on the streets, London's brass is doubling down to keep the peace flowing smooth.
