A man has been charged over the vandalism of a golf course owned by US President Donald Trump.
It comes after police were called to the Trump Turnberry course in South Ayrshire, Scotland, at around 4.40am on Saturday 8 March.
Officers found red spray paint had been used to deface the 800-acre resort's clubhouse, while its greens were also damaged.
A 33-year-old man was arrested earlier this month in connection with the case.
In an update on Friday, Police Scotland confirmed he had now been charged.
The suspect is due to appear at Ayr Sheriff Court on Monday.
