Seems to happen every time there's a cops'n'robbers incident at
Heathrow. Maybe they can't get permission to fly a police helicopter
over the scene; but you'd think they could block off all the exit

I supposed at least it was the british bobbies, not the Saudi Special forces
involved in the operation.
