London - Arab Today

British police said on Thursday a man carrying knives had been arrested on Whitehall, the street home to numerous government ministries in central London, and was being detained under anti-terrorism laws. 


"A man has been arrested in Whitehall this afternoon, at approximately 14:22, following a stop and search as part of an ongoing operation," London's Metropolitan Police said in a statement. 


"The man, aged in his late twenties, was arrested on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon and on suspicion of the commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism. Knives have been recovered from him." 


The man, aged in his late 20s, was arrested by armed officers on Parliament Street, a stone's throw from the UK parliament building and Prime Minister Theresa May's official Downing Street residence. 


No one was injured in the incident, police said and May's spokesman said the prime minister was not at Downing Street at the time of the incident. 


Armed officers sealed off the area. 


Police said the man was being held at a south London police station. 


"Detectives from the Counter Terrorism Command are continuing their investigation, and as a result of this arrest there is no immediate known threat," the police statement said
