A Blackburn pub has been closed by police following a number of disturbances.

Officers shut the Jubilee, in Blakey Moor, after midnight on Friday. Inspector Stuart Bruce took the action after a number of incidents that night.

Following a meeting with the landlady, Nicola King, a decision was made to keep the pub closed until a hearing at Blackburn Magistrates' Court today, where a decision will be made as to whether the pub should re-open.
