Police have taken a potentially lethal knife off the Island’s streets following the discovery of the blade in Newport’s Church Litten park today (Tuesday).
Local officers made the discovery whilst out patrolling the streets in Newport as part of Operation Varney – a bid to reduce antisocial behaviour in and around the town’s bus station.
Coincidentally, the seizure comes on the first day of a national week of action against knife crime entitled Operation Sceptre.
