1/5 We continue to be really busy across the county with high demand as well as numerous reports of breaches of Covid-19 regulations.

On Tues we received a report of a street party in Darwen where around 40-50 adults and children were gathered. Image
2/5 Officers attended and a woman, understood to be the party organiser, was issued with a £10,000 fixed penalty notice.

We remain in the middle of a pandemic and the rules are there to stop the spread of the virus and to keep everybody safe.
3/5 We want things to go back to normal just as much as everybody, but the rules are there for a reason. By not following them you could be contributing to the likelihood of further restrictions.
4/5 Our approach has always been and will continue to be, to engage with people to explain the rules, and we don’t take enforcement action lightly, however we will issue fines for non-compliance where necessary.
5/5 Anybody who isn’t sure what the rules are should visit gov.uk/coronavirus for more information.

Sadly, we are now able to confirm that yesterday we recovered Nicola Bulley from the River Wyre.

Nicola’s family have been informed and are of course devastated. Our thoughts are with them at this time as well as with all her loved ones and the wider community. Image
We recognise the huge impact that Nicola’s disappearance has had on her family and friends, but also on the people of St Michael’s. We would like to thank all of those who have helped during what has been a hugely complex and highly emotional investigation.
Today’s development is not the outcome any of us would have wanted, but we hope that it can at least start to provide some answers for Nicola’s loved ones, who remain foremost in our thoughts.

The case is now being handled by HM Coroner.

Today Andrew Burfield was jailed for life for the murder of Katie Kenyon.

We think it’s important give you an insight into the investigation that led to his conviction and tell Katie’s story.

This is that story ⬇️
Katie was reported missing in April.

Concerned family members had gone to Burfield’s home after they had received cryptic text messages - sent from Katie’s phone - saying she had “gone away to work on herself”. Those messages were from Burfield, purporting to be from Katie.
Our digital forensic experts would later recover drafts of the messages backed up in the notes section on Burfield’s iPhone, which showed he had written them at least three weeks before the day they were sent out.

This is Katie Kenyon.

Katie was a happy, much-loved mother, sister and daughter who was murdered by someone she should have been able to trust.
That someone was 51-year-old Andrew Burfield, who despite initially denying any knowledge of her whereabouts and changing his story throughout, has today pled guilty to her murder.

Burfield premeditated his attack, travelling to Bolton-by-Bowland before the murder to dig a grave
Today, DCI Al Davies was at court as Burfield gave a guilty plea on the 3rd day of his trial.

Andrew Burfield has put Katie’s family through the unimaginable pain of going to trial, only to plead guilty several days in.
