Pink lights show up spotty youths

Pink lighting may be introduced in public places in Lancashire in a bid to stop teenagers committing crime.

The lights are intended to create a calming atmosphere - but they also show up spots on the skin.

Insp John Ainsworth, based in Lea, Preston, believes putting the lights in well-known trouble spots could lead to a drop in anti-social behaviour.

Insp Ainsworth said: "Pink lighting will make a difference to some people - perhaps not the hardcore element."
