Even in Wiltshire, the LOWEST region, it would mean approx 1 in every 5 households would suffer from knife crime, I'm struggling to believe that!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Could be a typo, but when you read the full report it all reported crime, not just violent crime, and I’d well believe those numbers around here, it’s as ruff as toast, there places like little Albania you just don’t go Quote Link to post Share on other sites
