A man claiming responsibility for last Tuesday's letter bomb in
south England was arrested on Friday, police said.
The man was detained under the Mental Health Act after he called
a radio station to claim responsibility for a letter bomb in
Wokingham, southern England on Tuesday, police said.
In Tuesday's letter bombs, two men suffered blast wounds to
their hands and upper bodies at the offices of an accountancy firm
linked to Speed Check Services in Wokingham.
Police were investigating whether the man was responsible for
the attacks.
During the last three weeks, seven letter bombs have been
received across the country and nine people have suffered minor
injuries in the attacks.
The attacks appeared to confirm fears that an enraged motorist
is mounting a daily parcel bomb campaign.
