Chris Morriss, 49, was convicted of ten rapes on the 13-year-old and will serve at least 11 years before he is eligible to apply for parole. • A man who was arrested after a teenager was raped in a Leyland park last Friday (July 22), was bailed on Saturday. The 18-year-old suspect, from Leyland, was taken into custody after a teenage girl reported being raped in Strawberry Valley Park in Bent Lane at around 4am on Friday. • Three men have been released with no further action after being arrested on suspicion of murder following the death of a woman in Crawshawbooth.
