A MALICIOUS caller's mobile phone was barred after its owner made a prank call to firefighters at 8pm on Wednesday.
Sub Officer Steve Harrison said the caller had made several malicious calls to police and fire services, in addition to the one on Wednesday to a supposed house fire in East Crescent, Accrington.
He said: "We got control to ring up the mobile company and they barred the phone so it couldn't make any more calls. Enough was enough."
