Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright added:
“After a thorough assessment, we have opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct in public office. Protecting the integrity and impartiality of this inquiry is essential as we work with our partners. We recognize the significant public interest and will provide updates when appropriate.”
Andrew has consistently denied any wrongdoing. Following roughly 11 hours in custody, he was released the same day, though authorities stressed the investigation remains active.
Trump Comments From Air Force One
Shortly after news of the arrest circulated, former U.S. President Donald Trump addressed reporters aboard Air Force One, commenting on Andrew and the potential implications for the British monarchy.
