MAN ARRESTED AFTER EGG ALLEGEDLY TOSSED AT KING

A man was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of assault after an egg was allegedly hurled towards King Charles III during a visit to a town centre, police said. Bedfordshire Police said a man in his 20s was being questioned over an alleged common assault. Charles was meeting the public outside the town hall in Luton, north of London, when the egg was apparently thrown. He was moved to a different area by his security guards and resumed shaking hands with members of the public. The King was due to visit several sites in Luton on Tuesday, including a transit station and a Sikh house of worship. Last month a 23-year-old man was arrested after eggs were hurled at Charles and his wife Camilla, the queen consort, during a visit to York, northern England.
