A man has been detained by police after appearing to throw eggs at the King and Queen Consort during a walkabout at Micklegate Bar, in York.
The King and Queen Consort are visiting Yorkshire where the monarch will unveil a statue of his mother, the late Queen.
Charles spent two days carrying out official engagements, visiting Bradford and Leeds on Tuesday and then York and Doncaster on Wednesday, with Camilla joining him on the second day.
The King and Queen Consort will also attend a service in York Minster, with the monarch unveiling the Platinum Jubilee tribute to Elizabeth II, crafted by Minster stone mason Richard Bossons.
Photos of the incident show half a dozen officers surrounded with a man on the floor within a crowd greeting the King and Queen Consort at the ceremony where the monarch is traditionally welcomed to the city.
After the statue unveiling in York Minster, the pair will travel to Doncaster, South Yorkshire, to confer its status as a city.
Eight places won coveted city status as part of celebrations for the Queen’s Jubilee.
