British authorities have arrested two teenagers in northern England suspected of planning acts of terrorism.

The teens are a 14-year-old boy from Blackburn and a 16-year-old girl from Manchester.

The boy is one of the youngest to be arrested on terrorism suspicions. It was unclear if the two are related.

It's the latest in a wave of young Westerners pledging allegiance to ISIS and other terrorist groups.

In the United States last week, the FBI arrested two young women in New York and one in Philadelphia also on suspicion of terrorism related activities.
