Three people have been charged as part of a counter-terror probe after allegedly causing damage in the premises of a firm in Hampshire.
Security staff reported that people had forced entry to the building in Harvest Crescent, Fleet, and caused extensive damage in the early hours of Sunday.
A police officer from Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary was assaulted, but was uninjured, and three people were arrested, Counter Terrorism Policing South East (CTPSE) said.
CTPSE said it had taken the lead for the investigation “due to the circumstances of the incident”.
Steven Davies, 57, of Slade Road, Birmingham, Dolores Gnapi, 34, of Tariff Crescent, Lewisham, south-east London, and Ian Roberts, 51, of McDougall Road, Wednesbury, West Midlands, have been charged with aggravated burglary and criminal damage.
Roberts was also charged with assaulting an emergency worker.
They were remanded in custody to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.
