Not sure what this was all about yet,  but they just said on the late news that a little girl of just 3 yrs old, got sprayed with Pepper spray.

I have no BBC account. Found story on a news site instead.
Excerpt...
A three-year-old girl is among 21 injured after a group of men attacked a woman with pepper spray in an alleged suitcase robbery at Heathrow Airport.

One man was arrested by armed police as 16 victims, including the toddler, were treated at the scene and five more were rushed to hospital.

Police, ambulance and fire engines swooped on the multi-storey car park in Terminal 3 just after 8am today, sparking hours of travel chaos for holidaymakers.

Scotland Yard is investigating the alleged robbery in which a group of four men attempted to steal a woman's luggage shortly after her flight landed at Heathrow.

It's understood they sprayed the substance at her in a car park lift, affecting other passengers inside and in the surrounding area.

All very odd.

I am sure she was carrying something they wanted...

Doesn't say anything about her being charged. I wonder if they found the suitcase because I know what it sounds like.

The Police arrested a bloke apparently,  but were looking for his 3 accomplices still.
That was the last I heard anyway.

It's a sad sign of the times that so many of us kinda jump to the same shortlist of conclusions.
