Armed officers from the Metropolitan Police arrested one man on suspicion of assault after a group of men sprayed several people with what is believed to be pepper spray in a Terminal 3 multi-storey car park this morning.
Police were called at 8.11am following reports of multiple people being assaulted, with the suspects fleeing the scene immediately afterwards.
London Ambulance Service treated the victims at the scene before taking them to hospital, where their injuries are not believed to be life-changing or life-threatening.
Commander Peter Stevens said: “Our officers responded quickly and there will be an increased police presence at Heathrow Airport throughout the morning, to continue enquiries and ensure the safety of those in the area.”
