What happened — the incident unfolds

Officers were called to the Terminal 3 car park at 08:11 GMT after reports that a group of men had allegedly assaulted a number of people.

The assault reportedly occurred during a robbery: a woman was robbed of her suitcase inside a car park lift by a group of four men.

During the robbery, the men sprayed what is believed to be a chemical irritant — likely a form of pepper spray — in the lift and surrounding area.

Eyewitnesses described a terrifying scene. One passenger — who had just landed and drove into the car park — said there was “coughing everywhere”, with people clutching their eyes and throats.

Others described the reaction as “burning” and “chaotic”. Armed police arrived swiftly — within nine minutes — and detained a 31-year-old man nearby on suspicion of assault.
