- 3 Arrested in British Tapping Inquiry
  Posted by Billbar from Los Angeles Times
  British police arrested three men Tuesday, including a newspaper section editor, in an investigation that began with complaints from Prince Charles' office about possible phone-tapping, police and the newspaper said. Police said they did not believe the phones of any members of the royal family had been tapped. But the calls of other public figures may have been intercepted, raising potential security issues, police said. They refused to say whose phone may have been tapped. And police did not identify those who were arrested, but the News of the World tabloid said Clive Goodman, editor of its section on royalty, was among them.
