Horsemeat Scam: 3 arrests in Britain

Three men at meat plants in Britain suspected of passing horsemeat off as beef have been arrested Thursday on suspicion of fraud, police said.
Concerns about horsemeat first emerged in mid-January when Irish authorities found traces of horse in beefburgers made by firms in the Ireland and Britain and the UK and sold in supermarket chains including Tesco and Aldi.
The discovery has sparked a European crisis, with supermarkets across the continent withdrawing millions of beef products.
