Two men have been charged in connection with a suitcase robbery where a believed to be capsaicin spray caused injuries at London's Heathrow Airport.

Tyrone Richards, 31, and Anton Clarke-Butcher, 24, have both been charged with two robbery charges and charges for administering a noxious substance, as confirmed by court officials.

This legal action stems from an investigation into an assault at the multi-storey car park at Terminal 3 on Sunday. Prior to the attack, two women were robbed of their suitcases taken after getting out of a parking garage elevator, police said.

A young child was among those injured in the event. A total of five individuals required hospital care and were eventually allowed to go home.

The incident – described by police as was a standalone event and deemed non-terroristic – resulted in train delays and the partial closure of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the Terminal 3 car park for a limited duration.
