A bungling rollerblader nearly crashed into King Charles’ car minutes before he mounted a vigil in honour of his mother, the Queen.

The man had to be tackled by police as the royal cavalcade entered Parliament Square at approximately 7.40pm yesterday. 

The man tried to cross the road as the new king was making his way to Westminster Hall for another vigil for his late mother. 

Police last night stopped a man who was roller skating along the road just as King Charles III’s cavalcade was approaching Parliament Square

Officers blocked him from the roadway to allow the new monarch safe passage to Westminster Hall

The man was led away by police who had ‘a word’ with him before allowing him on his way

Met Police officers on foot managed to tackle the man and bring him to the ground allowing King Charles III to continue his journey without further problem. 

Scotland Yard told MailOnline: ‘At approximately 19:40hrs, as police vehicles were entering Parliament Square, a pedestrian attempted to cross the road. 

‘An officer on foot quickly intervened, bringing the man to the ground in order to stop him from continuing. 

‘The man was subsequently spoken to by officers before being let on his way.’
