GMP warn of increased police presence at Metrolink stops this week in anti-knife drive
Police are launching a crackdown on knife crime this week — promising more patrols, more weapon sweeps, and more amnesties.
That’s alongside strengthening the Challenge 25 programme where people can buy knives, working with schools, colleges and youth groups to educate young people on the dangers of carrying knives, conducting weapons sweeps for hidden or discarded knives, and putting officers at knife arches at Metrolink stops and other locations in order to detect and deter people from carrying knives.
“This team has already seen great results with over 141 arrests made and 47 weapons seized in just 4 months. The team are continually building an intelligence picture around knife crime hotspots and will continue to target offenders and protect communities across Greater Manchester.
