LONDON, England -- The Olympics are just two weeks away and two separate incidents have British authorities taking precaution.
A bus on its way to London was pulled over by police after a passenger poured a liquid into a smoking bag. Police isolated the passengers on the side of the road.
"We heard it was a device, could be an explosive on the bus, suddenly 30 other vehicles arrives. It was quite serious," one bus passenger said.
The military was also called in.
While that incident was a false alarm, an incident near Olympic Park ended with the arrest of six people.
Police say it was some sort of "pre-planned" operation.
