A Section 60 order that was put in place in Aylesbury has been extended for a further 24 hours.
The Section 60, which gives officers greater powers to Stop and Search people in a defined area, was enacted following a stabbing in New Street at around 6.20pm on Tuesday (10/5).
A man in his late teens was taken to hospital where he remains in a stable condition.
An investigation has been launched and a 17-year-old boy from Aylesbury has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. He has been released on police bail while our enquiries continue.
The Section 60 will remain in place until 3.30pm on Friday (13/5) and covers the area shown on the maps:
Buckingham Park Estate, within the boundary of Prince Rupert Drive to the south, the A413 to the east, Martin Dalby Way to the north and Peacock Lane and Beeston Lane to the east.
Aylesbury town centre, within the boundary of the A4157 to the north and east and the A41 to the south and west.
Superintendent Rebecca Mears, Local Police Area Commander for Aylesbury Vale, said: “I have authorised an extension to the Section 60 to reduce any further serious violence being carried out and target those who maybe seeking to carry weapons.
