A WOMAN who called police because of problems with her partner met them at the front door in tears and cradling a newborn baby.

Blackburn magistrates heard the woman said her partner was in the house and described him as not "being with it at all."

And Kirk Taylor told the court he thought his non-alcoholic drink had been spiked.

Taylor, 28, of Hapton Road, Padiham, admitted a breach of the peace and was bound over in £150 to keep the peace for six months.

Catherine Allan, prosecuting, said after being spoken to by the police Taylor agreed to leave the address and spend the night at a friends. But he returned half an hour later and was behaving really aggressively.

Taylor said he had been with some friends and some people he didn't know.

"I think somebody put something in my drink because I didn't know what I was doing," he said.

"I hadn't drunk any alcohol whatsoever."
