Two additional individuals have been arrested in connection with the recent incident of vandalism at Donald Trump’s Turnberry golf course in Scotland. The incident involved the destruction of a green and the painting of pro-Palestine graffiti on the course’s premises.
According to Police Scotland, a 55-year-old woman and a 33-year-old man were arrested and charged in England. The woman was apprehended in Leeds, while the man was taken into custody in Wakefield. Both individuals are scheduled to appear in Ayr Sheriff Court on Monday.
This development follows the previous arrest of 33-year-old Kieran Robson, who appeared in Ayr Sheriff Court and was charged with causing malicious damage to the golf course. Robson, a resident of Galashiels in the Scottish Borders, did not enter a plea during the court hearing and was released on bail pending further examination of the case.
In addition, a 75-year-old man and a 66-year-old woman who were previously arrested in Oban as part of the investigation have been released as further inquiries are conducted.
The vandalism incident at Trump Turnberry took place amidst international concern over President Trump’s controversial remarks about turning Gaza into a resort akin to the French Riviera. Trump later shared a computer-generated video depicting his vision for Gaza under his proposed plans.
President Trump has strongly condemned the perpetrators of the vandalism, labelling them as “terrorists” and calling for strict action to be taken against them by the authorities.
