"TEENAGE TUBE ALERT SUSPECT DAMON SMITH 'IN LOVE WITH IS'" (SKY NEWS)

On Saturday 22nd of October, anti-terror police evacuated a home in Newton Abbot after they found an 'item that they deemed as suspicious'.

19 year old Damon Smith was arrested by the police after a controlled explosion was carried out on the item found on a Jubilee Line. According to his friends "Damon was enamoured with Islamic State". It has been said that he would constantly show his friends videos posted by IS of people being executed and burned alive in cages.

Police said he was arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation and instigation of terrorism acts, under section 41 of the terrorism act 2000.

I think that his friends should have told the police that he was so interested by IS as it could have stopped this incident. Although no one was hurt and they are still unaware of what his real intentions were, innocent peoples lives were put in a dangerous situation that could have lead to death.
