Man takes shots at Prince Charle Successor to British throne remains calm after sIuf The Associated Press SYDNEY, Australia — Britain's Prince Charles, eager to boost his image after the breakup of his marriage to Princess Diana, has proved one thing: he can stay cool under fire. The 45-year-old heir to the throne hardly flinched Wednesday when a young man ran out of a crowd, lunged at him and fired two blank shots from a starter's pistol during an outdoor ceremony marking Australia's national day. The prince saw the man run to ward him and froze momentarily as the shots rang out. Afterward, he calmly adjusted his cuff links. Within minutes of his as sailant's arrest, Charles carried on with his speech. He joked with the crowd, and later assured guests at a cocktail party that he was fine. "He played it cool. He wants everyone to know he is OK," said Sydney Lord Mayor Frank Sartor. Others on stage were knocked from their seats in the commotion. Police said the assailant, 23- year-old university student David Kang, wrote Prince Charles last month to complain about Aus tralia's treatment of several hun dred Cambodian boat people held in detention camps. The prince's staff had written back that Charles could not be come involved in the matter. Kang was jailed and charged under a federal law to protect in ternational VIPs. If convicted, he could be imprisoned for a maxi mum of 20 years. He is scheduled to appear in court early Thursday. The prince did not comment to reporters. His aides said he was unconcerned about his safe ty and would continue his tour of Australia. New South Wales state Police Minister Terry Griffiths described the attack as a "stunt, not an as sassination attempt." "There was no risk to the prince's physical being at any stage," he said. Griffiths criticized Buckingham Palace for insisting on low-level protection so the prince could be close to the public. The pate structiohs were "that then® be no security forces betwetn prince and the public,” he said Buckingham Palace comment on the incident.
