Prince Andrew 'used guards as ball boys'

Prince Andrew has been accused of making his security guards run after his golf balls during practice at Buckingham Palace.

The Mirror reports that former member of the Royalty Protection Department, PC Paul Page, made the allegation in documents lodged at Southwark Crown Court.

The officer, who worked at the palace for ten years, claims that guards were made to stand 100 yards away from the Prince to collect the balls struck at him during golf practice.

Page, 37, is facing fraud charges for alleged involvement in a spreadbetting syndicate - which he denies.
