Hammer attack on Downing Street.

category international | sci-tech | other press author Friday September 10, 2004 15:39author by ;-) - Mao was a bad man. Report this post to the editors

less than a week since a man "went berserk" and attacked the offices of MI5 and the NI office, this.

man was arrested today after attacking the Downing Street security gates with a sledgehammer, police said.
The man, thought to be in his 60s, is not thought to have caused much damage beyond scratching the paintwork on the gates. Scotland Yard said the attack is not believed to be terrorist-related.

The incident occurred at around 6.20am this morning and was over in a matter of seconds. The man was arrested by police on suspicion of causing criminal damage and taken to a central London police station, where he remains.

: "The man did not go anywhere members of the public cannot reach and did not breach security."

Normal officers of the Metropolitan Police dealt with this one, keen readers will recall members of the specialist diplomatic defence police force used a non lethal stun gun to detain the machete wielding type who attacked Thames House last week.
