Op Sceptre Knife Arch deployment

Today, your Efford Neighbourhood Policing Team carried out a planned knife-arch operation at the Co-Op on Torridge Way. This proactive activity is part of our ongoing work to keep the community safe and to deter the carrying of weapons.

We’re pleased to report that the operation ran smoothly, and officers were able to engage with shoppers and staff, offering reassurance and answering questions about local policing priorities.

These deployments are just one of the ways we’re working to reduce violence and keep Efford a safe place to live, work, and shop. Thank you to the community for your support and cooperation today.
