A “SECURITY issue” caused Worcester Magistrates Court to open late this morning.
A large crowd of people were gathered outside the court in Castle Street just before 10am.
A witness said: “A security guard came out and said he could not open the court because of a security issue.”
The court opened at 10am which may cause a delay to cases heard by magistrates today.
PCSOs were seen entering the building to provide support.
It has not yet been revealed what was causing the issue.
