More than 100 blades collected in knife bin outside supermarket
More than 100 blades have been deposited in a knife bin outside a branch of Morrisons in Lichfield.
The knife bin at the Morrisons store in Lichfield’s Beacon Street was permanently secured in the car park in July along with three others in the district.
Since it was installed, a variety of knives have been relinquished and stored securely within the specially designed bin.
A recent check by Police for Lichfield District Community Safety Partnership found there was 110 in number which will now be melted down and recycled.
The three other knife bins installed as part of the initiative are at Tesco Extra in Church Street, Lichfield; Morrisons in Burntwood; and Burntwood Leisure Centre.
