Two men have been charged in connection with a luggage theft where a believed to be pepper spray resulted in harm at London's Heathrow Airport.

Tyrone Richards, 31, and Anton Clarke-Butcher, 24, have both been charged with two robbery charges and charges for using a harmful chemical, according to official statements.

This legal action stems from an investigation into an attack at the multi-storey car park at Terminal 3 on Sunday. Before the assault occurred, two women were robbed of their luggage taken after getting out of a parking garage elevator, authorities reported.

A three-year-old girl was among those injured in the event. Several persons required hospital care and were eventually allowed to go home.

The incident – which authorities stated was not part of a series and deemed non-terroristic – caused disruptions to rail services and the temporary blocking of the Central Terminal Area tunnel and the T3 parking area for a brief period.
