Arrests Made in London Bombing Case

British police make at least four arrests in connection with Thursday's bomb attacks in London. The arrests follow a series of raids in the northern city of Leeds in connection with the July 7 attacks on the London transit system.

Scotland Yard is investigating whether four attackers died in the blasts; all are all thought to be British born. Police searching one house Tuesday found suspect materials, which they destroyed in a controlled explosion.
