World NewsCharles' car attacked in U.K. violenceFurious student protesters attacked a car carrying Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, vandalized buildings and battled riot police Dec. 9 as a controversial hike in university fees triggered Britain's worst political violence in years. In a major security breach, demonstrators set upon the heir to the throne's Rolls Royce as it drove through London's busy West End on its way to a theater. A group of up to 20 struck the royal couple's car with fists, sticks and bottles, breaking a window and splattering the vehicle with paint. In the frenzy, some chanted "off with their heads!" Witnesses reported that Charles kept his calm. (AP)
