Police are investigating claims Britain's most notorious serial rapist may have struck in Blackpool.

Lancashire Police is investigating a rape allegation dating back to the 1990s when John Worboys was working as a male stripper in the resort.
The 68-year-old predator, now known as John Radford, was locked up indefinitely for public protection with a minimum term of eight years in 2009, after he was found guilty of 19 sex offences against 12 women between 2006 and 2008.
He was later jailed for life with a minimum term of six years at the Old Bailey in December 2019 after he admitted spiking the drinks of a further four women.
