( this shows, again, why initial reports are always shaky )

SLUG: 2-325957 London Bombing Update DATE: NOTE NUMBER:
DATE=7/15/2005 TYPE=CORRESPONDENT REPORT
TITLE=LONDON BOMBINGS UPDATE (L-ONLY) NUMBER=2-325957
BYLINE=MICHAEL DRUDGE DATELINE=LONDON

HEADLINE: British Police Say Bombs were Homemade

INTRO: British police say they suspect the bombs that blew up on London's
transport system last week were homemade from common household chemicals. The
revelation comes as new reports say that police in Cairo arrested and are
questioning an Egyptian bio-chemist sought in the probe into the London
bombings. VOA's Michael Drudge has more from London.

TEXT: Police sources say new evidence leads them to believe the London bombs
were made from acetone peroxide, and not military-style explosives as first
thought....
