+A loop keyword (`break` or `continue`) was used inside a closure but outside of
+any loop.
+
+Erroneous code example:
+
+```compile_fail,E0267
+let w = || { break; }; // error: `break` inside of a closure
+```
+
+`break` and `continue` keywords can be used as normal inside closures as long as
+they are also contained within a loop. To halt the execution of a closure you
+should instead use a return statement. Example:
+
+```
+let w = || {
+    for _ in 0..10 {
+        break;
+    }
+};
+
+w();
+```
