King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla Parker-Bowles were almost hit when a protester threw eggs at them during an official royal visit to York.
The royal couple was on a walkabout through Micklegate Bar when a protester yelled out “this country was built on the blood of slaves,” and began throwing several eggs. The protestor, a 23-year-old student at the University of York, was arrested on the scene and remains in custody.
Video footage of the incident shows the eggs whizzing by the King’s face and shoulder as he maintains his composure. The footage shows the eggs broken on the ground near his feet. It appears that both King Charles and Camilla remained unperturbed by the disruption.
