King Charles III: York student guilty of egg throwing charge
BBC News
Senior District Judge Paul Goldspring found the defendant guilty of threatening behaviour, saying he had "intended to cause King Charles to believe immediate unlawful violence would be used against him". Body-worn camera footage of Thelwell's arrest, which was played in court, showed Thelwell saying: "I threw an egg at him because that's what he deserved.He also asked: "Did I get him? Next time, someone will."
Thelwell told the court his defence was "that my actions towards the King were lawful violence rather than unlawful violence". "Hundreds of people have contacted me to say they would have done the same thing and they would do the same thing if the King visited their community," he said.
