England team security leak.
The PSNI has been called in over the leak of highly sensitive security information from the England football camp, the Belfast Telegraph can reveal today.
The material has been obtained by this newspaper and includes the names of police officers travelling over with the England squad.
Also leaked was the full list of the 64-strong England party that flew into Belfast yesterday, complete with the passport numbers of David Beckham, Wayne Rooney and all the other stars.
The highly confidential information was supposed to have been faxed by an FA official to the five-star North Down hotel in advance of the players' arrival yesterday evening.
But it ended up in the fax machine of a Belfast city centre business with a similar fax number to the Culloden's.

Welcome to Belfast
As the England football team arrived in Belfast yesterday an all-too-familiar scene was happening several miles away - total anarchy on the city's streets.
At the same time as the multi- million pound stars, including David Beckham, Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen, were checking in to the plush Culloden Hotel, the city's Woodvale area was in chaos.
Lorries, vans and cars were hijacked and set on fire as mobs took to the street following police searches in response to a UVF show of strength at the weekend.
Youths pelted police with petrol bombs and the fire service also came under attack.
