- Leicestershire Police gets £1m to tackle rising tide of knife crime
Leicestershire Police has been granted an extra £1million to tackle serious violence and the country’s spiralling knife crime epidemic, the county’s Police and Crime Commissioner revealed today. Lord Willy Bach said the force was one of 18 across the country to be granted the Home Office funding boost, which will be immediately invested into “a surge of operational activity” beginning this Easter weekend. Reacting to the news, Willy Bach said: “I’m relieved that our urgent calls for additional funding have been heard. This money is desperately needed and will increase our capacity to tackle knife crime and violence as early as this Easter weekend. “The violence on our streets must end which is why I know that the Chief Constable will be taking a hard-line operational approach over the coming weeks and months maximising the use of all available resources. But alongside enforcement, we will be ensuring our young people continue to be supported to make better lifestyle choices and fully understand the consequences of carrying knives. “I’ve already announced £100,000 this year into projects tackling knife crime on top of over £300,000 for community-based crime prevention. This £1million boost will certainly make a difference to that work but there is always more to be done. When it comes to knife crime, everything counts. This is just the beginning.” Chief Constable Simon Cole welcomed the injection of funding. He said: “The extra money will allow additional operational activity on the streets across the city and counties, tackling the serious crime happening on our streets. “We will be looking at what resources are available for over the coming weekend quick time, while also planning for the weeks and months ahead to make sure we are utilising this money in the most effective way. “Tackling knife crime, and educating young people about the dangers of carrying a knife is something we are dedicated to, with our #LivesnotKnives campaign delivering workshops to young people about what consequences there may be if they were to be found with, or use, a knife.” Home Secretary Sajid Javid has secured £100m to tackle serious violence and knife crime, including £80m of new funding from the Treasury this financial year. A total of 18 forces are immediately benefitting from a share of £51m to tackle the recent surge in violence on Britain’s streets. The allocation reflects levels of serious violence in each force area using hospital admissions for sharp object assault data. The announcement comes after senior police officers made representations to the Home Secretary’s roundtable meeting on March 6 highlighting the costs required to confront the rising demands of violence. Last month Willy Bach, who has pledged to get to the core of the knife crime epidemic sweeping Britain’s streets, announced a series of funding grants for projects which work directly with young people with the aim of turning them away from violence and gang life.

Leicester City Council announces that No changes to city waste collections this Easter and that all recycling and waste collections will take place on the normal collection day over the forthcoming Easter holiday. There will be no changes to any collection days, including on Good Friday (19 April) when a special bank holiday collection will take place.

Householders are also reminded that you can use your orange bags or communal recycling bins to recycle plastic packaging, foil, cardboard and Easter egg boxes. The foil around chocolate eggs can be scrunched together into a larger ball of foil, which makes it easier for machinery to sort it for recycling.

- 10 year prison sentence for man found with firearm and drugs
A man found to be in possession of a firearm, ammunition and more than £100,000 worth of class A drugs has been sentenced to a total of 10 years in prison. Liam Chambers, 27, pleaded guilty to possession of the firearm – a revolver – and to two counts of possession of ammunition when he appeared at Leicester Crown Court on Thursday 21 February. He also admitted two counts of possession of a class A drug with intent to supply, namely heroin and cocaine, including crack cocaine. The ammunition charges relate to firearm cartridges. Today (Friday 12 April), at the same court, Chambers, of no fixed address, was sentenced to a total of 10 years in prison. The items were found following a search of an address in Scraptoft, Leicestershire, in December 2017. A drugs expert witness estimated that the street value of the drugs found was around £101,000 to £103,000. A forensic scientist tested the firearm and found it functioned as expected. Following investigation including the items being sent for DNA and fingerprint analysis, Chambers was arrested. Officer in the case, Detective Constable Beverley Toon said: “This was a significant amount of class A drugs which was found in addition to a firearm and ammunition and I am pleased that Chambers has accepted responsibility. My thanks go to the investigation team who have worked hard on this case to see this result. “Illegal firearms are extremely dangerous and put lives at risk. The supply of drugs causes damage to both individuals and communities. We will continually work to remove both of these items from our streets and to prosecute those responsible for bringing them into the area. I urge anyone who has any information regarding a person being in possession of an illegal firearm or concerned in drug supply to report it to police immediately.” Source : Leicestershire Police For more information on County Lines, and how to spot the signs of it happening in your area, www.leics.police.uk/countylines
- Police made 12 arrests during County Lines crackdown
Police have been busy tackling the distribution of drugs in and around Leicester, A total of 27 warrants have been carried out this morning & yesterday, leading to 12 people being arrested. Operation Lionheart aims to crackdown on County Lines activity which involves drugs being moved in and out of Leicestershire. Twelve people have been arrested as part of a police operation targeting the sale and distribution of drugs. A total of 27 warrants have been carried out this morning (Wednesday 10 April) and yesterday, leading to 12 people being arrested. Four have subsequently been charged with drugs offences and one with a public order offence. Their arrests come after officers have spent significant time gathering information and evidence on people suspected of being involved in County Lines criminality. Gangs and organised crime groups involved in County Lines activity use either dedicated mobile phone lines or a person as a ‘deal line’ to supply drugs to other areas of the county, often small towns. They usually exploit children or vulnerable adults to move and store drugs and money and will use coercion, intimidation, violence (including sexual violence) and weapons. As part of Operation Lionheart officers are appealing for communities across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland to report any County Lines activity they suspect is happening in their area. Chief Superintendent Adam Streets, head of Local Policing, said: “Drugs ruin lives and cause devastation to communities. We work closely with our partners and are committed to cracking down on those at the root of this type of criminality to ensure they are brought to justice, as well as safeguard anyone being exploited. “Communities can help us in our efforts by reporting any concerns about the suspected sale and distribution of drugs in their area, no matter how small it may seem. Any details you have could be the missing piece of information we need to take action against people suspected of being involved in County Lines criminality. “If you are unsure what to look for – there are a number of signs that indicate this type of activity is happening. We ask everyone to be aware of what they are so they can report it.” Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101, quoting incident 225 of 2 April.
