Knife carriers will be targeted as police kick off a knife-crime crackdown
dubbed Operation Sceptre which has already removed two knives from
Rotherham’s streets.
Temp Det Inspector Aneela Khalil-Khan said she wanted to make Rotherham a
safer place to live and work and encouraged the public to contact the force
about knife crime.
Two knives were found in Rotherham parks by police officers yesterday
(pictured) as they carried out land searches. The knives were found in
Hollowgate Park on Wellgate and in Eastwood’s multi-use games area (MUGA).
Officers also searched Eastwood Pocket Park and the garages around
Eastwood’s Erskine Road area.
Det Inspector Khalil-Khan said: “We will be targeting known habitual knife
carriers and those involved in crime
“We want to make Rotherham a safer place to live and work. We encourage
members of the public to contact us if they have any information or know of
anyone involved in knife crime.”
