They were taken into police custody where they remain.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n### LATEST DEVELOPMENTS\n\n\n\n\n  * Travellers descend on medieval village for FOURTH time despite council spending £20k on barrier\n  * Kuwaiti man who tried to break into Israeli embassy was migrant who crossed Channel on small boat\n  * Nigel Farage reveals plan to jail lawyers who help illegal migrants make false gay claims\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nA number of buildings nearby were evacuated as a precaution, however it was quickly established there was no wider risk.\n\nThe attack is not being treated as a terrorist incident but is being investigated by detectives from Counter Terrorism Policing London, supported by officers from the North West Command Area.\n\nAt this stage, the Met Police does not believe is linked to the attempted arson in Finchley this week or last month’s arson in Golders Green.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
