Quote:
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange was arrested by British police on Thursday in the Ecuadorian Embassy where he'd been holed up since 2012 after the United States requested his extradition, London police say.

London police confirmed Assange was arrested "on behalf of the United States," which requested Assange's extradition, as well as for breaching British bail conditions.

U.S. prosecutors said they have charged Assange with conspiracy in trying to access a classified U.S. government computer with former U.S. Army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning in 2010.

Assange faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison, the U.S. Justice Department said in a statement.
