A man accused of threatening people with a knife and sending threatening messages will stand trial after denying the offences.
Isaiah Weekes, 20, appeared at Preston Crown Court on Tuesday (November 26).
He entered not guilty pleas to two counts of threatening a person with a blade and a single count of sending a threatening communication.
The alleged offences are said to have taken place across two days in October in Blackburn.
Weekes, of Milton Close, Great Harwood, was remanded into custody ahead of a trial date on April 14, 2025. It's expected the trial will last three days.
His next court appearance will be on February 19, 2025, for a pre-trial review.
