Q&A: What is known about London attack Associated Press Copyright 2013 Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed. Updated 12:08 am, Thursday, May 23, 2013 A look at the key known facts about the Wednesday attack in south London, when two men hacked another to death near military barracks. Two men with butcher knives, a machete and a meat cleaver hacked another to death near military barracks in south London's neighborhood of Woolwich. Two U.K. government officials told the AP the attack seemed to have been ideologically motivated by radical Islam, adding that the assessment was not based solely on video footage of one suspect making political statements against the British government. Britain's prime minister said there are "strong indications" the attack was an act of terrorism, and other officials have indicated it was inspired by radical Islam. The French president, who appeared at a press conference with the British prime minister, said the victim was a soldier, but British authorities have not yet confirmed his identity. Before police arrived at the scene, one of the suspects, hands bloodied, called on Britain to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan. In footage taken by people on the street and obtained by ITV news and The Sun newspaper, one of the suspects apologized that women passers-by "have had to witness this" barbarity, saying that "in our land our women have to see the same." Footage showed a man in a dark jacket and knit cap walking toward a camera, clutching a meat cleaver and a knife.

Restaurant torched in 4th night of Sweden riots STOCKHOLM (AP) — Groups of youth have burnt down a restaurant, torched more than 30 cars and injured three police in a fourth night of riots in suburbs of the Swedish capital that started following a fatal police shooting. Police spokesman Kjell Lindgren says at least 30 cars were set ablaze across western and southern Stockholm early Thursday.

The province where the attacks took place has been the site of a separatist insurgency and violence by other militants.    

The arrests came two and a half weeks after elections that showed the governing party losing support with broad swaths of the multicultural electorate.
