LONDON – Four people have been arrested after custard and apple crumble were flung at a display case containing part of the Crown Jewels at the Tower of London.

Police were called shortly before 10:00 GMT on Saturday after the case containing the Imperial State Crown was defaced.
The Metropolitan Police said four people had been arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and the Tower's Jewel House has been closed to the public while the police investigation continues. Take Back Power, which describes itself as a new non-violent civil-resistance group, claimed it was behind the act.
The group said it carried out the stunt to demand the UK government establishes a permanent citizen's assembly - a "House of the People" - with the power to "tax extreme wealth and fix Britain". (BBC)
