The papers have reported an incident at Amalienborg a Saturday evening:
Påsat brand foran kronprinsparrets hjem - Billed Bladet
A young man, described as not being ethnically Danish looking, went up to a sentry box outside M&F's mansion, poured some inflammable liquid on the sentry box and set fire to it.
The guards put out the fire almost at once using fire extinguishers. I guess they are stored in the sentry boxes or just inside the gates.
The man got away.
The police is not treating it as something more serious than an act of vandalism.
It is not known whether M&F were at home, but they were not in any danger. - And may not even have known about it until the next day.
- The guards from time to time have to take action against nutcases, drunks and what not, especially at night.
My guess is that this was a nutcase, someone high on something or a dare.
There are two sentry boxes outside each mansion and depending on circumstances, there are at any given time one or two guards outside each mansion as well as guards on permanent stand-by in the guards room, currently in the basement of the mansion which the Regent Couple occupy. - Once Frederik become king, the guard room will be moved to the mansion M&F live in.
