Police have arrested a third suspect in connection with arson attacks targeting properties and a car linked to UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, as investigations continue.

A third man has been arrested in connection with a series of arson attacks on properties and a car linked to UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer. The Metropolitan Police confirmed that a 34-year-old man was detained this morning in Chelsea, west London, on suspicion of conspiracy to commit arson with intent to endanger life.

This follows the arrest of a 26-year-old man at Luton Airport on Saturday for the same offence. He remains in custody after police secured a warrant of further detention from Westminster Magistrates' Court.

Last week, 21-year-old Ukrainian national Roman Lavrynovych was charged with three counts of arson with intent to endanger life. Lavrynovych, who lives in Sydenham, south-east London, denied the charges during a police interview and has been remanded in custody. He is scheduled to appear at the Old Bailey in June.

The incidents include a fire in the early hours of May 12 at a property in Kentish Town, north London, where Sir Keir previously lived with his family. The entrance was damaged, but no injuries were reported. On May 8, a car was also set on fire on the same street.

The investigation is ongoing, with authorities treating the incidents as serious threats to public safety.
