The Army has reportedly launched an investigation after an 'intruder' spent the night at a barracks near Windsor Castle. It is believed the individual spent a night with the Royal Guardsman.
Police were alerted to reports of an intruder at Victoria Barracks in Sheet Street, Windsor, at 9.20am on Wednesday while the Queen was at Sandringham for Easter. The barracks are home to The Coldstream Guards, recognised by their red jackets and black bearskin hats and have a ceremonial role as protectors of Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace.
Soldiers were approached at the gate by the man who was pretending to be a priest, the Sun reported. He allegedly spent the night eating and drinking with senior officers before being offered a bed for the night, despite showing no identification or credentials.
