LONDON—Police detectives on Sunday arrested a second man in London in connection with what they called a terrorist incident near Buckingham Palace, when a man drove up to a police van then reached for a 1.2-metre sword. The man, who repeatedly shouted “Allahu akbar!” (“God is great” in Arabic), was arrested on the scene. Scotland Yard said a second suspect, a 30-year-old man, was detained Sunday in west London on suspicion of involvement in terrorism. The force added that a warrant has been granted to detain the first suspect until Sept. 1. Police had said Saturday they believed the man was acting alone and were not looking for other suspects.
