Report: Prince George will be protected by 50 armed guards

LONDON, July 31 (UPI) -- Fifty armed guards are being assigned to protect British Prince William's newborn son, Prince George, in revolving shifts around the clock, The Sun reported.

The guards are to provide full-time security at Queen Elizabeth II's 20,000-acre Sandringham estate in Norfolk where William and his wife, Kate, are expected to take a 10-bedroom property as a country home, the newspaper said.

The couple married in April 2011. They welcomed their first child July 22 and brought their newborn son home to Kensington Palace last week.
