In a recent undercover operation in Cheltenham, two local shops were caught selling knives to underage testers. The sting, coordinated by trading standards alongside police officers and police cadets, aimed to enforce the laws preventing the sale of dangerous weapons to minors. The test purchase operation revealed that these retailers failed to comply with legal age restrictions, prompting authorities to take appropriate action. This initiative highlights the ongoing efforts to curb the availability of knives to young people and ensure community safety.
