The trial of a man accused of murdering two women police officers begins today.
Dale Cregan, 29, is accused of killing PCs Nicola Hughes, 23, and Fiona Bone, 32, in a gun and grenade attack on September 18 last year.
He is also accused of the murders of David Short, 46, and his son Mark, 23, last summer.
Cregan denies four charges of murder, four of attempted murder and one of causing an explosion.
The trial will take place amid one of the tightest security operations ever mounted for a court case, with more than 150 police officers surrounding Preston Crown Court.
Some are armed with automatic weapons, while marksmen have been seen perched on the top of nearby buildings during previous hearings.
Security surrounding the court is tight Cregan will appear in the dock alongside nine alleged associates.
They deny a range of offences including murder, attempted murder, causing an explosion, possessing a firearm and assisting an offender.
The jury for the 12-week trial was sworn in earlier this week and the lawyers have spent three days locked in legal argument about the details of the case.
