Eubank arrested in Whitehall demo from the BBC
Former world champion boxer Chris Eubank has been arrested for an alleged breach of the peace while demonstrating in his truck in Whitehall.
He had been driving his truck bearing a banner stating: "Blair, don't send our young prince to your catastrophic illegal war to make it look plausible."
Mr Eubank, 40, of Upper Drive, Hove, East Sussex, was taken to Charing Cross Police Station for questioning.
In 2003, he was arrested for a one-man protest over Iraq in Downing Street.
Mr Eubank is a familiar figure in his home town of Hove, and can often be seen driving around in a large black truck with his name emblazoned on the side.
He was one of the world's top boxers in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and is renowned for always being immaculately dressed.
In September 2005, he was found guilty of illegally driving off in a beer lorry without the owner's consent in Brighton.
The court cleared him of the more serious offence of aggravated vehicle taking and he was given an absolute discharge, but ordered to pay £450 in costs and £90 for outstanding penalty fines.
Good old Chris, doesnt do things by halves bless him lol
