But deputy mayor Bev Hughes said a downward trend in hospitalisations was 'promising'
Deputy Mayor Bev Hughes has said knife crime in Greater Manchester remains too high after three serious stabbing incidents in one week.
According to an annual report produced by the deputy mayor's office, there were 4,510 recorded incidents of knife crime in the year ending March 2022, up 18 per cent on the year before. The M.E.N. asked Mr Burnham for a comment following the three latest serious stabbing incidents. He did not reply but his office sent a statement from Bev Hughes, who will soon be stepping down from her role as deputy mayor,
She said there had had been a three-year 'downward trend' in admissions to hospital of young stabbing victims in Greater Manchester. She indicated 409 victims of knife attacks under the age of 25 were admitted to hospitals this summer, some 83 fewer than the previous summer. This represents a decrease of 17 per cent.
