-

A TOPLESS woman has been arrested outside Windsor Castle as Prince Philip’s funeral was under way, according to reports.

The Mirror reports that the woman ran in front of a crowd near the castle following the minute’s silence for the Duke of Edinburgh while shouting “save the planet” after the crowd began an applause to conclude the silent tribute.

Before officers arrested her on castle Hill, in Windsor, she jumped on to a statue of Queen Victoria.

Video footage from the scene shows police telling people to stand back and ushering bystanders away.

Hundreds of people fell silent in Windsor to pay tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh.

Mourners lined up outside the castle and paused for the silence, while others on the nearby Long Walk did the same.

People were seen holding Union flags, partners wore matching hats while others clutched flowers.

Armed officers stationed above surroundin­g buildings watched on as the crowd joined the nation in paying tribute to the Queen’s husband.

The public was urged to stay away from the funeral amid coronaviru­s restrictio­ns.

High street cafes near the castle were told to limit the number of tables they put out on pavements as authoritie­s tried to discourage people from visiting or gathering.
