Bedfordshire Police said according to the Daily Mail, the man was arressted and questioned over an alleged common assault in St George’s Square this morning.
The King was meeting members of the public outside the town hall in Luton, 46km north of London at the time of the assault.
He was then moved to a different location by his security guards and resumed shaking hands with members of the public. They wished the monarch “Happy Christmas!” as they greeted him.
Charles has travelled widely across Britain since becoming monarch on the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in September.
He was due to visit several sites in Luton on Tuesday, including a transit station and a Sikh house of worship, a gurdwara.
Last month a 23-year-old man was arrested after eggs were hurled at Charles and his wife Camilla, the queen consort, during a visit to York, northern England. The man was later released on bail.
