Blazing Jeep Slams Into Glasgow Airport

AP IAN STEWART June 30, 2007 03:04 PM
Two men rammed a flaming Jeep Cherokee into the main terminal of Glasgow airport Saturday, crashing into the glass doors at the entrance in what appeared to be the third attempted terror attack on Britain in two days, witnesses said.
Police wrestled the two men to the ground -- one of them engulfed in flames -- arresting both and taking one to the hospital.
MADRID (CNN) - The airport on Spain's Ibiza island in the Mediterranean was evacuated Saturday after an anonymous bomb threat was called into a newspaper office that often receives such calls from the Basque separatist group ETA, but police later determined that a suspicious package was empty, CNN partner station CNN Plus reported.
The caller to the newspaper office reportedly did not mention ETA in this instance.
There was confusion as to whether there had been a police controlled explosion of the suspicious package or not. Some people outside the airport said they had heard what sounded like an explosion, but Interior Ministry sources told CNN Plus that there was no explosion.
There were no immediate reports of injuries. (Posted 12:27 p.m.)
