A WOMAN has admitted setting fire to a Blackburn property, being reckless as to whether the lives of others would be endangered.

Emma Warner, 25, pleaded guilty to an arson charge relating to an address on Carlinghurst Road, Blackburn on January 31 this year.

At a Preston Crown Court hearing, defence barrister Mark Stuart asked for sentence to be adjourned so that medical and probation reports can be prepared.

The case was put back to June 11.

Warner was remanded on bail by Judge Brian Duckworth with conditions to reside at an address in Ellenshaw Close, Darwen and not to enter any public house or off-licence.
