Man arrested for mooning Queen

A 22-year-old man has been charged with wilful exposure and public nuisance offences after he allegedly exposed himself to the Queen’s motorcade in Australia today.

It is alleged he flashed his bottom as the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh were en route from Brisbane Airport to a wharf where they began their river journey through the city.

He was arrested and released on bail to appear before local magistrates on Friday.

The British royal couple, in Australia on an official visit, were in Brisbane for a series of engagements today and to hear first hand about the floods that devastated the city in January.
