William Wallace was captured in August 1305 due to a betrayal by one of his own countrymen, Sir John de Menteith. Wallace was lured to a meeting under the pretense of negotiating with the English, and de Menteith, loyal to the English crown, informed the authorities of Wallace's location. He was arrested near Glasgow and subsequently handed over to the English, leading to his execution later that year.
