More than 35,000 children were attacked or threatened with a weapon last
year, according to figures from the police. Shotguns, handguns, knives,
knuckledusters, nunchucks, axes, meat hooks and even bombs were used to
attack or intimidate 96 children every day in England and Wales. Last week,
the number of teenagers who have died this year as a result of violent
attacks passed 50, after two boys were stabbed in London and Manchester. The
figures for those areas show that last year 18,403 children were attacked or
threatened with a weapon, suggesting that across England and Wales as a
whole there were 36,806 such incidents – one every 15 minutes.
