LONDON - Anti-terrorist police investigating the London bombings raided five residences in northern England Tuesday morning. No arrests were
immediately reported.
News reports said the searches were concentrated on one street in Leeds, 185 miles north of London. Police would confirm only that the activity was in
West Yorkshire, the county Leeds is in.

and a bus.

Not surprised the investigation would travel north. The majority of the British muslim communities are further north than London. Birmingham and
Leeds were my first thoughts of where Islamic militants would spring from.
