A man has been arrested for allegedly failing to self-isolate after arriving on the Isle of Man amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The island has passed emergency legislation requiring new arrivals to quarantine themselves for 14 days.
People who break the law could face a fine of up to £10,000 or three months in prison, the chief minister has said.
The 26-year-old man is thought to be the first person held in the British Isles for breaching quarantine rules.
He is "in a specially cleaned" area at Isle of Man Constabulary's headquarters in Douglas "designated for those who should be self-isolating".
