Police Flood Ex-Prince Andrew’s Estate Following Arrest — See the Scene

The location of ex-Prince Andrew’s arrest is coming into focus — and new photos show the scale of police presence on the morning of February 19, when he was taken into custody.

Andrew, the third child of the late Queen Elizabeth II, was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. He had been temporarily living at Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, England, at the time. The scene included at least six unmarked cars and eight officers outside the estate, the National Enquirer can report.

Some officers carrying laptops and papers were seen driving into Wood Farm around 8 a.m. The arrest falls on Andrew’s 66th birthday.

Photos offer a glimpse of one of the properties on Sandringham Estate, a sprawling 31-square-mile royal residence, according to BBC. While it remains unclear exactly what residence Andrew was staying in, images show officers outside of a Tudor-style brick-and-stone home.

Other photos show officers walking along the estate’s winding paths and speaking with one another outside their marked vehicles. One law enforcement official was seen holding a piece of paper in the air.

It’s been reported that Andrew’s residences in Sandringham and Windsor are being searched by authorities.

Andrew — who has always denied wrongdoing — was stripped of his military titles and patronages by his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, before her death in 2022. His siblings include King Charles III, Princess Anne, and Prince Edward.

His older brother Charles, 77, issued a statement via Buckingham Palace via BBC, saying, “I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office.”

The monarch said the next steps involve a “full, fair and proper process” and said authorities “have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation.”
