Apparently, there is a massive increase in violent crime in every corner of the country...and it has the police really concerned....
But analysis of the figures force by force, showed the full extent of the problem, with only one constabulary, Nottinghamshire, recording a reduction in violent offences.
The vast majority of police forces actually witnessed double digit rises in violent crime, with Northumbria posting a 95 per cent increase year on year.
Of the other forces, Durham Police recorded a 73 per cent rise; West Yorkshire was up 48 per cent; Avon and Somerset 45 per cent; Dorset 39 per cent and Warwickshire 37 per cent.
Elsewhere Humberside, South Yorkshire, Staffordshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Wiltshire and Dyfed Powys all saw violence rise by more than a quarter year on year.
Violent crime on the rise in every corner of the country, figures suggest
I guess they could try banning guns...but they already did that......20 years ago....it didn't lower the gun crime rate or the violent crime rate.....so...I guess it didn't work...but now that violence is increasing all over the country.....they could...do it again?
