A 13-year-old boy has been interviewed by police following a spate of attacks on taxis in the Shadsworth area of Blackburn.

Drivers have been ambushed at zebra crossings and had bricks thrown through their windscreens.

Police launched a special operation aimed at catching the yobs which has seen them travel undercover as passengers in taxis and go into schools to warn children.

On Monday evening a house brick was thrown through the windscreen of a cab.
