Woman arrested after attempted burglary at Prince George's school

George had his first day at the school only last week.

A WOMAN HAS been arrested after an attempted burglary at the school attended by Prince George.

The 40-year-old woman, who has not been named and is in custody, was arrested today, a day after what police classified only as “an incident… when an individual gained access to its premises”.

The Metropolitan Police said in a statement that it is working with the school on security arrangements around the third in line for the British throne.

“Police were alerted and officers attended immediately after the issue came to light.

“Police are part of the protective security arrangements for the Prince and we will continue to work closely with the school, which is responsible for building security on its site.”

George had his first day at the school only last week.

George, whose formal title is Prince George of Cambridge, is known as George Cambridge to his classmates at the €19,200-a-year school.
