Police warn of Adlington Quarry dangers as ‘youths’ reported at site
Lancashire Constabulary received numerous reports of youth anti-social behaviour at the quarry in Adlington.
Within the site, young people were seen going up and down the conveyor belt to jump into the sand.
Alexander Banister, an officer at Chorley Rural East, said: “I want to take this opportunity to remind everyone of the dangers within these areas.
“Although it might seem like a good idea to explore, there are numerous dangers often hidden within these areas, such as quick-sinking sand and mud and dangerous equipment.
“As these youths were seen going up and down the conveyor belt to jump into the sand, this is extremely dangerous as the sand sits on concrete, which could have resulted in someone getting injured.
“Please ensure you stay away from these areas and avoid putting yourself in any unnecessary danger.
“Take care and stay safe.”
