UK police carry out controlled explosion near site of new U.S. embassy
A controlled explosion was carried out by the British Police near the new U.S. embassy building in London.
British police said on Wednesday they had carried out a controlled explosion near where the United States is building a new embassy in southwest London, but the unattended vehicles which triggered the action turned out not to be suspicious.
Police said they were called out after a report of two unattended vehicles near the embassy site, and carried out a controlled explosion at around 1637 GMT.
