He was just one of the people caught flouting coronavirus restrictions in Lancashire this week. Lancashire Police said other incidents included a homeowner at a house party in Colne who told officers she was just ‘having a disco’. Another case was two people from different addresses - one in Preston and one in Blackburn - who were stopped close to Preston Dock. They gave several reasons for being out together before eventually admitting they had met up to get a McDonald’s. There was also a house party in Nelson, with people from several different addresses in attendance. Between Friday (January 15th) and this morning (January 20th) police have issued 198 fixed penalty notices for breaches of the Covid-19 regulations which have taken place right across Lancashire.
