A house has been ‘shut down’ by police, with people banned from entering it for the next three months.

Police in Burnley have obtained an anti-social behaviour closure order from the courts and to shut down the property at 21 Pine Street in the town.

Officers say the order means no one can enter the address for the next three months, and if anyone does they will be arrested.

PC Katy Glegg said, “We have spent the last few weeks working closely with our partners at the Local Authority, gathering information from the community around the activities at the address which were causing significant disruption and upset to other residents.

"We would like to thank everyone that has contributed and we hope that this demonstrates our commitment to addressing anti-social behaviour.”

If you need to report anti-social behaviour please call 101 or you can report online.
