The incident led to the partial closure of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the multi-storey parking facility.

Formal charges have been brought against two men following a suitcase robbery where a believed to be capsaicin spray resulted in harm at London's Heathrow Airport.

Tyrone Richards, 31, and Anton Clarke-Butcher, 24, now face two counts of robbery and two counts of deploying a toxic agent, authorities have stated.

This legal action stems from an investigation into an attack at the parking structure at Terminal 3 on Sunday. Earlier that day, two women were robbed of their luggage taken after getting out of a car park lift, police said.

A young child was caught up in the incident in the event. Several persons were taken to a medical facility and were subsequently released.

The incident – described by police as was isolated and not considered a terror-related act – caused disruptions to rail services and the partial closure of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the Terminal 3 car park for a brief period.
