POLICE have been called to a Southampton pub after the landlord claimed she was told to leave.

Krista Campbell has been managing the Bitterne Park hotel on Cobden Avenue, Southampton, but says she has been instructed to leave the bar, which is run by Pub Solutions.

Officers have arrived at the scene and Ms Campbell says closing the pub would put six staff out of a job.

A customer who has a party planned this weekend told the Daily Echo she was frustrated that she may be forced to cancel.

She said: "I have spoken to Pub Solutions and they have been very unprofessional.

"I have no idea what I am going to do."

Neither Pub Solutions nor owners Enterprise Inns have yet replied to a Daily Echo request for comment.
