Prince Charles in Car Attack

Prince Charles was attacked in his car in London by student protesters rioting over tuition hikes.
His wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, was also in the car.
According to the Palace, neither is hurt.
The couple eventually got to their destination, the Royal Variety performance in London.
A spokesperson for Prince Charles tells Gossip Cop, “They’re fine.”
The royal Rolls Royce was smashed by rioters who kicked in the side, broke the back left passenger window, and threw paint over the car.

The incident occurred on Regent Street in the heart of the city’s shopping district.
Rioters are vandalizing nearby stores and smashing windows at the UK Supreme Court.
An eyewitness said the couple became separated from their police escort as they drove up Regent Street towards the London Palladium, and found themselves in the midst of crowds who had just left the protest in Trafalgar Square. Protesters bombarded the car with bottles and bins.
When the royal couple arrived at the London Palladium they appeared relaxed and smiled and joked with Kylie Minogue, Take That and N-Dubz, some of the acts that performed for them tonight.
Another vehicle, which had been travelling behind the royal car, also had a cracked window, but its occupants, who work for the couple, were also unharmed.
There was a heavy police presence around the entrance to the Palladium on Oxford Circus.
A Clarence House spokeswoman said: “We can confirm that their Royal Highnesses’ car was attacked by the protesters on the way to their engagement at the London Palladium this evening.
“Both their Royal Highnesses were unharmed.”
