Before the incident, two women were robbed of their suitcases upon exiting a parking garage elevator. A toddler aged three was among the injured during the incident. A total of five individuals were taken to the hospital for medical care and have since been discharged. Police arrested a man in his thirties for suspected robbery and assault close to the location. He was subsequently released pending further inquiries while inquiries continue. Authorities were called at approximately 8:10 in the morning GMT following reports of a number of people injured by a noxious substance believed to be an irritant spray. The attack - an event that authorities stated was isolated and not considered terrorism - resulted in train delays and the temporary shutdown of the main airport tunnel and the Terminal 3 parking facility briefly.
