This is why firefighters are at Leyland Police Station tonight
Firefighters are currently attending an incident at Leyland Police Station.
Pictures from the scene show a number of appliances outside the police station on Lancastergate.
Speculation on social media claimed that the station was on fire.
However Lancashire Constabulary's Force Incident Manager has confirmed tonight to The Post that firefighters have arrived after an alarm in the building had sounded.
It is not believed that there is a fire, and that maintenance teams are on their way to deal with the issue.
