Lancashire Police said the woman, in her 20s, was the same person involved in a five-hour roof top stand-off at the same building on Friday.

Parts of Dickson Road and Talbot Road were closed while officers attempt to talk the woman away from the ledge.

The cordon around the building was lifted at around 4pm.
