Three men reportedly spray a noxious substance at Heathrow Airport, and passengers say they vomit blood. According to reports, the incident occurs inside a terminal in busy airport surroundings. Authorities are investigating what was released and the circumstances leading to its dispersal.
Multiple outlets describe the suspects as facing-covering travelers who discharge a gas-like substance, believed to be CS tear gas, before fleeing with suitcases belonging to other people. The reports say the three men make off with at least one traveler’s luggage shortly after the spraying. Details differ across accounts on the number of victims and the extent of injuries, but the core allegations—tear gas use in the terminal and immediate escape with stolen bags—are consistent.
Media coverage focuses on passenger reactions, including the reported “vomiting blood,” and on the alleged theft during the disruption. Investigators also address safety and verification of the substance involved, while witnesses and passengers describe the immediate effects inside the terminal.
