UK: 7 terror suspects arrested after guns found

Seven men have been arrested on suspicion of terrorist offenses in Britain after a routine vehicle search turned up firearms and weapons, police said Friday.
Two unloaded, non-automatic guns and a small amount of ammunition were later found hidden in the vehicle along with "offensive weapons and other material," which prompted police to trace and arrest the driver, passenger and other suspects, according to West Midlands Police.

Prime Minister David Cameron's spokesman Steve Field insisted there was no sense of alarm at the spate of arrests so close to the start of the Summer Games.

Police said three of the men were arrested Tuesday, three on Wednesday and one on Thursday. Six of them are in their twenties, while one is in his 40s.
The men have been arrested on suspicion of preparing or instigating acts of terrorism. They were being questioned by officers and their residences were searched.
