A three month old baby was summoned to the US embassy in London after his grandfather accidentally ticked a box claiming the youngster was a terrorist.

Factory owner Paul Kenyon, 62, had planned to fly his family to Florida for a holiday to his villa in Orlando, but made the mistake on the ESTA form needed for entry into the country.

It meant little Harvey Kenyon-Cairns's application was refused and he was asked to attend a grilling from US officials in London.

Mr Kenyon travelled down with his daughter and Harvey's mother, Faye, from his home in Poynton, Cheshire, to the embassy in Grosvenor Square just three days before their flight, but the Visa failed to arrive in time.

He admitted the whole affair cost him an extra £3,000 as he had to pay for extra flights so that Faye, 27, her partner John Cairns, 31, and Harvey could still come with them.
