London - Police investigating the July 7 bombings on London's transit system made searches on Friday at properties in Leeds, the city in northern England where three of the suicide bombers lived.
Scotland Yard police headquarters in London said anti-terrorist officers were searching a combination of residential and business premises, together with local officers from West Yorkshire Police.
"Searches remain ongoing. No arrests have been made," a statement from the London force said. "This is in connection with the terrorist attack in London on July 7."
Hasib Hussain, 18, from a suburb of Leeds, blew himself up in a double-decker bus at Tavistock Square in London. Shahzad Tanweer, 22, died in blast on subway train near Aldgate station and Mohammad Sidique Khan, 30, blew up a bomb at the Edgware Road subway station.
Fifty two commuters were killed in the attacks.
