WATCH: Police seize zombie knife in Luton raid
A teenager has been arrested and a zombie-style knife seized in Luton.
Police raided the property on Friday (August 21) – with the teen arrested on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon.
Bedfordshire Police are encouraging anyone with information about knife carrying to come forward and report it.
A spokesperson said: “There is no place for these dangerous and illegal weapons in our communities, and we remain committed to doing everything we can to keep them out of the hands of young people.
“Enforcement is a vital part of our approach, but it is only one element. We continue to work closely with partners, schools, families and local communities to tackle the root causes of knife crime and support long-term prevention and early intervention.”
They added: “We're continuing to urge young people to make the right choice – drop the knife and safely surrender weapons at one of our dedicated weapons bins.”
