“The public should be reassured that a full policing operation in place to respond to any disorder, as well as maintaining our normal services to communities across Lancashire.
“As always, the top priority is public safety and I’d like to thank Lancashire Constabulary officers and staff for their bravery and professionalism in the face of violence, intimidation and hatred.
“I’m encouraged by the positive feedback I’ve received about our officers who have worked tirelessly, alongside other forces, dealing with appalling situations.
“These officers need to be praised and supported. Violence and intimidation has no place on our streets and in our society and arrests will be made either immediately or retrospectively, with intelligence teams are working round the clock to identify those involved.
“We have a strong tradition of community in Lancashire, and I’m confident we will stand united against anyone intent on causing fear, destruction or violence.
“Lancashire Victim Services are working to ensure members of the community who have been affected or targeted by the ongoing acts of violent disorder have the support they need.
“Call Lancashire Victim Services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on 0300 323 0085 or lancashirevictimservices.org for more information about the service, or for other ways to get in touch, including Live chat. “
