Man arrested after trying to jump over the barriers as Queen's coffin begins its journey to Windsor | The Sun

A MAN has been arrested for trying to jump over a barrier during the Queen's procession.

The Queen's coffin is making its final journey through streets lined with thousands of mourners following an emotional state funeral service.

Thousands of mourners this morning lined the streets with many queuing over night to catch a glimpse of their beloved Monarch.

But one attendee was apprehended by cops for trying to jump over the barriers onto Parliament Street by the Cenotaph.

The arrest took place as The Queen’s coffin emerged but before the full procession was underway.

It comes as King Charles is leading the Royal Family in a sombre procession behind Her Majesty past Buckingham Palace, before she is reunited with her beloved husband Prince Philip in Windsor.

It comes as…

  • Solemn King Charles leads the Royal Family in an emotional procession behind the Queen's coffin
  • Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince George, 9, arrived at Westminster Abbey with mum Kate Middleton
  • Meghan Markle bowed her head as she joined the Royals
  • Prince Andrew wore a suit after being banned from his military uniform
  • Two thousand mourners including world leaders gathered for the funeral

He is joined by his brothers Andrew and Edward and sister Anne, as well as Princes William and Harry.

Some 98 sailors are pulling the ceremonial gun carriage, while another 40 march behind.

Guardsman and members of the Armed Forces follow, all walking at 75 paces a minute.

The Queen Consort, Princess of Wales, Duchess of Sussex and Countess of Wessex are following by car.
