July 10 (UPI) -- A man with a wrench intruded upon England's World Cup media center, prompting police intervention and an investigation by the English Football Association, a source familiar with the matter told UPI.
Sources told The Athletic, The Telegraph and The Standard that the man entered the facility Thursday in Kansas City, Mo., prompting a call to police. England players and coaches, who participated in training Thursday in the same city, were not there.
Police escorted the man off the premises.
The Three Lions have held their base camp in Kansas City throughout the 2026 World Cup. They will travel to Miami on Friday for their quarterfinal meeting with Norway. That match will kick off Saturday in Miami Gardens, Fla.
