On April 17, three British nationals faced serious charges after an arson attack on a Persian-language media office in northwest London. 21-year-old Oyssen McGinnis from Watford, 19-year-old Nathan Dunn from Watford, and a 16-year-old boy from North London got hit, with arson intending to endanger life. McGinnis also picked up a dangerous driving charge. The incident kicked off around 8.30 pm on April 15, when an ignited container got hurled into the building. It landed in the car park, and the fire fizzled out on its own, with no injuries reported. Officers on routine patrols caught wind of air right away, and launched urgent searches. They pegged the suspects fleeing in a black SUV, sparking a high-stakes pursuit through the streets. An armed response vehicle locked onto the matching ride, but it crashed on baller's lane near Woodbury Gardens in post-code in 12. That led to the quick arrest of the three males matching those ages on suspicion of the arson. They're all due in Westminster Magistrates Court, this Friday, April 17,

as the investigation presses forward with no room for slip-ups.
