A 29-year-old man is being held by police this morning after what authorities will only describe as an ‘incident’ on Horse Guards in London.
The suspect has been arrested but the Met will not yet reveal on suspicion of what crime he has been detained.
It happened at a Ministry of Defence property earlier today and he is currently in custody.
The MOD referred all enquiries to the Met Police, who said they would send additional details in the next hour.
