Police call for information after three people, including a child, were attacked with a corrosive substance.
A 10-year-old girl, a 43-year-old man and a 36-year-old woman were taken to hospital after the substance was thrown at them in north London on Monday evening.
Metropolitan Police officers were called to a property at 7.20 p.m. in Colindale, near Barnet, where they located the victims.
All three were transported by the London Ambulance Service to hospital where they were treated for non-life threatening injuries.
They have since been fired.
A number of officers were also treated at the scene for the effects of the substance after attending the address, although none were in serious condition.
No arrests have been made and investigations are continuing.

“If you were in the area and witnessed the incident or have any information that could help you, I urge you to come forward and speak to the police.
