The Londoner who confronted a Muslim woman over Brussels has been arrested

Londoner Matthew Doyle sparked outrage yesterday when he bragged on Twitter about challenging a Muslim woman to "explain" the Brussels terrorist attacks.

Social media users united in condemnation - and mockery - about Doyle's comments, which seemed to only egg him on to make more trolling remarks on Twitter. https://twitter.com/MatthewDoyle31/status/712615148410773505?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Doyle, a publicity manger, later deleted the offensive tweet, and started claiming that the whole incident was a "wind-up", and that if it was really a serious issue, he'd "be reported". https://twitter.com/MatthewDoyle31/status/712604415207874561 Well, Metropolitan police announced last night that the 46-year-old had been arrested for "inciting racial hatred". https://twitter.com/MPSCroydon/status/712749135007453185?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw The force confirmed to The Guardian that the man was kept in custody on Wednesday night. There's no information yet about if he will be charged.
