A spokesman for Lancashire Police said: "Whilst we know the vast majority of people are sticking to the restrictions – and we thank those for the huge efforts they have made – it is really disappointing to find that a minority of people are deliberately and knowingly flouting the regulations, which are there to stop the spread of the virus and keep everybody safe.
"We’ll carry on working with our partners to use all the enforcement options available to us against this small minority of people who defy the rules and often do so on numerous occasions.
