POLICE have made a further arrest in connection with damage at Donald Trump’s golf course in Ayrshire, which took place in March.
Red paint was sprayed on the clubhouse at the 800-acre Trump Turnberry resort, along and damage was also caused to the greens, with the words “Gaza is not for sale” painted across them.
The incident was reported to police at about 4.40am on Saturday, March 8.
A number of people have already been arrested in connection with the incident. As of the end of April, seven people had appeared in court.
On Thursday, Police Scotland announced that a 24-year-old man had been arrested and charged over “malicious mischief” – an offence involving damaging property.
The National understands that the arrest occurred in a dawn raid this morning.
Activists alleged the timing was to coincide with Trump's state visit.
The 24-year-old was arrested in London and is expected to appear at Ayr Sheriff Court at a later date.
The announcement of the latest arrest comes as the US president’s state visit to the UK comes to an end.
