A man has been arrested after climbing over a gate at Buckingham Palace, Scotland Yard has said. A statement from the Metropolitan police said: “Shortly before 13.45 hours on Friday, police at Buckingham Palace were alerted to a man climbing over the south gate. “As he dropped to the ground he was met by officers and arrested for trespassing on a designated site. In August, a 22-year-old man was spotted on CCTV after climbing over a security fence but was stopped “within a security perimeter”. A few months earlier, a 41-year-old man spent seven minutes in the grounds before being arrested.
