The boy, aged 15, was seen climbing onto the roof of the cafe at the Solaris Centre in New South Promenade, Blackpool, at around 5am on Sunday (July 21).

The teen didn't react kindly to police disturbing his early morning activity, with him "aggressively resisting officers", said a spokesman from Lancashire Road Police.

Officers also found an eight inch kitchen knife on the suspect.

He was subsequently detained and arrested.
