Man who travelled from Blackpool had hammer and knife
A man, who was arrested on Easter Monday, appeared before Carlisle's magistrates' court today (April 6) where he was charged with sending, by a public communications network, a message that was grossly offensive, indecent, obscene, or of menacing character.
He pleaded guilty to the offence.
Andy Travis, prosecuting, told the court how Matthew Keen, 31, informed police in Carlisle that he had travelled from Blackpool to report an offence, and was told he must inform Blackpool police.
He was taken to Carlisle railway station to return to his home address of Reads Avenue, Blackpool.
