A TEENAGER barricaded herself between police officers and her boyfriend when they tried to arrest him in connection with witness intimidation, a court heard.

Kirsty Price initially told officers she did not know where her partner was when they went to his Worcester home, although they had seen him outside the property minutes earlier.

Sarah Stock, prosecuting, said the 18-year-old swore at them and then prevented them going upstairs.

Her boyfriend appeared at the landing shouting and screaming, but when the officers got upstairs he had gone through a window.

Price, of Carlisle Road, Ronkswood, admitted obstructing police.

Gary Harper, defending, said his client was facing proceedings for a breach of an existing rehabilitation order and asked for sentencing to be adjourned until then.

Price was released on unconditional bail.
