Eighth Person Arrested in U.K. Terrorism Probe

Police in Britain have made another arrest in their ongoing probe into a series of attempted terrorist attacks. A total of eight people have been detained in what a senior police official has called "a fast-moving investigation."

Officers are investigating possible links between Saturday's attempt to drive a car bomb into Glasgow Airport in Scotland, and two attempted car bombings in London on Friday. Some 19 locations have reportedly been searched.

Rob Gifford talks with Robert Siegel.
