A LARGE stash of beer has been seized from teenagers.

The Budweiser beer was taken by police from 13 and 14 years olds in Padiham Road, Burnley yesterday.

Burnley's neighbourhood policing team said they were acting on information given by residents in the area.

They are warning parents to make sure their children aren't drinking.

Police said on Facebook: "Teenagers drinking in public not only cause antisocial behaviour to residents but put themselves at risk.

"We might have spoilt their Friday night plans but we are more interested in protecting them from harm.
