British police arrested a man who tried to force his way into a U.S. air force base in central England.
“They just released us from lockdown,” a spokesman for the Mildenhall base, in Suffolk, said.
Britain’s Ministry of Defence said it was aware of an incident at the base and that police were taking a lead in the case. The U.S. embassy declined immediate comment.
