UK police on Tuesday charged a 20-year-old man with offences under Britain’s 1842 Treason Act, after arresting an intruder armed with a crossbow at Windsor Castle on Christmas Day last year.

Jaswant Singh Chail, from Southampton in southern England, also faces “threats to kill” and “possession of an offensive weapon” charges following the incident, which occurred while Queen Elizabeth II was at the castle, southwest of London.
