An Iraqi doctor is the first suspect to be charged in attempting bombings in London and Glasgow, AP reports.
Bilal Abdullah, 27, is believed to have been riding in a Jeep Cherokee that was loaded with gasoline canisters and driven into Glasgow's airport last Saturday. "I have now made the decision that there is sufficient evidence and authorized the charging of Bilal Abdullah with conspiracy to cause explosions following incidents in London and Glasgow," said British prosecutor Susan Hemming.
BBC News has just obtained new video of the Glasgow crash; it contains graphic images.
Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Inquirer is reporting that two of the doctors being held in the attacks may have attempted to come to the United States. Sources said Mohammed Jamil Asha, 26, and a suspect who hasn't been identified inquired about enrolling in graduate medical programs with the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates, a national organization based in Philadelphia.
