Two men used a stolen truck to break through a security gate at Windsor Castle and reportedly fled with a pick-up truck and quad bike.

Two men scaled the 6-foot fence on the night of October 13, using a stolen truck to break through a security gate.

The pair then reportedly fled with a pick-up and a quad bike that were stored in a barn, according to reports from The Sun.

William and Kate, the Prince and Princess of Wales, along with their three children - George, 11, Charlotte, nine, and six-year-old Louis - are believed to have been in the royal residence of Adelaide Cottage on the estate at the time, according to The Sun.

The King and Queen were not in residence.

The family moved there in 2022.

In a statement to the newspaper, Thames Valley Police said: "At around 11.45pm on Sunday 13 October, we received a report of burglary at a property on Crown Estate land near to the A308 in Windsor.

"Offenders entered a farm building and made off with a black Isuzu pick-up and a red quad bike. They then made off towards the Old Windsor/Datchet area.

"No arrests have been made at this stage and an investigation is ongoing."
