Harry, accompanied by police officers, was on his way to the Invictus Games, in which military personnel who were injured while on duty take part. The Prince acts as one of the curators of the competition and actively supports the participants.

When the motorcade was passing near the city zoo, one of the police officers on a motorcycle collided with a taxi. According to eyewitnesses, the collision occurred at high speed head-on, as a result of which the motorcyclist flew about nine meters from the scene, and the taxi driver was trapped in his car.

Harry himself was in a Range Rover SUV. According to anti-terrorist safety instructions, the Range Rover driver could not stop at the time of the accident and only braked after a few hundred meters. The prince was shocked by what happened and tried to find out what happened to the participants in the accident. According to some reports, the 29-year-old heir to the throne grabbed his head with his hands and looked around all the time.

Representatives of the palace clarified that the prince did not receive any injuries.

At the same time, rescuers had to cut the roof off the damaged taxi to reach the driver. Both participants in the accident were taken to hospital. The motorcyclist was soon discharged, the taxi driver is in a stable condition. London police are investigating. It is possible that the taxi driver could be charged with creating an emergency or even attempting a terrorist attack.
