Blast prepared at Leeds 'bomb factory'
Army bomb disposal teams are preparing to carry out a controlled blast at a suspected bomb making factory in Leeds. Police began evacuating about 70 houses in the area around Alexandra Grove in Hyde Park on Thursday lunchtime. The flat is believed to be a base used by the London bombers and is one of a number of sites police have been examining in West Yorkshire. West Yorkshire Police have said the operation is being carried out to dispose of a substance found inside. Must be too unstable to remove safely. |
