A GROUP of four people were locked up after police tried to arrest a man for being drunk.

Police responded to an incident in Railway Road, Darwen, at 4am yesterday morning.

As they tried to detain a man, three other people were involved in a ‘minor fracas’ at the scene.

They were held in the cells overnight and were being questioned yesterday.
