Paraglider Held After Landing at Palace

A paraglider landed at Buckingham Palace, reportedly hoping to publicize his unpublished novel, and was arrested by royal protection officers. Authorities questioned the suspect at a London police station, the Metropolitan Police said. He was later released on bail. A friend identified the paraglider as Brett De La Mare, 36, of Darwin, Australia, but police declined to confirm the identification. The royal family was away at the time, Buckingham Palace said.
