A MAN has been arrested for shouting abuse at Prince Andrew as the Queen’s funeral procession wound along the Royal Mile in Edinburgh today.
Video footage showed the 22-year-old man being dragged from the crowd by cops after heckling the Queen’s son.

The footage shows the man being pulled out of the crowd before falling to the floor.
He is picked up by a police officer and led away from the scene before a voice can be heard off-camera shouting: “Disgusting.”
Prince Andrew was a friend of child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell and her paedophile boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein.
The royal paid an undisclosed financial settlement to Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of raping her while she was 17, allegations the prince repeatedly denied.
Andrew attended his mother’s funeral cortege in plain clothes alongside uniformed military men, having been stripped of his military honours following the scandal.
A police spokesman said: “A 22-year-old man was arrested in connection with a breach of the peace on the Royal Mile at around 2.50pm.”
