'We know drug gangs hide weapons'
Police have recovered four knives and a baseball bat at a Northampton beauty spot. Officers were conducting weapon searches as part of a week of action focused on drug harm.
Detective Chief Inspector Steve Watkins, who is leading this week’s activity, said: “We know drug gangs hide weapons and go to retrieve them when they feel the need, so it’s important we carry out these weapon sweeps to seize as many as possible.“Not only does this remove them from the clutches of the gangs which may use them to injure a rival, but it also prevents innocent people finding them and potentially getting hurt.
DCI Watkins added: “We regularly conduct these searches at locations across the county and will continue to do so as we tackle those people who commit crime in Northamptonshire.
