Some News From Home

Police have arrested a suspect in the recent spate of letterbombings in the UK. Seven devices were posted to various locations, including the DVLA, several businesses and a private home. A primary school caretaker, Miles Cooper, was arrested near Cambridge.

And, of course, people who know him are stepping up with the old "he's so quiet, he's the last person you'd think would do this" lines.

Over a week ago, a man who confessed was cleared of being responsible. And then arrested under the Mental Health Act and given treatment.

A dark chapter, but think on this:

Nine people were injured. That's nine people from seven bombs.

It could have been a hell of a lot worse. Let's just hope that they got the right guy..
