In front of hundreds of mourners in the Palace of Westminster, a member of the Royal Guard surrounding the coffin of Queen Elizabeth II collapsed on Wednesday, September 14. The incident occurred when the people filed into Westminster to honour their Queen.
Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin arrived at Westminster Hall from Buckingham Palace on Wednesday and it was placed on the raised platform known as a catafalque.
